Default TOYOTA-TLT-10 2.2 GETS TOTAL UPDATE W/ Pics & Vid

Ok here is my TLT-10, hopefully it is up to the task of running with you guys in the Unlimited 2.2 class. It's got:
11.75" Wheelbase
2 - 3" under the skid
Slanted TXT tranny running 1- Stinger w/ 9 Tooth pinion
Locked diffs F&R
Novak rooster
Chopped TLT chassi
Cut Masher 2ooo's on narrowed/weighted hpi's
Maxx shocks and sliders
Lexan skidplate
Twin Force electronics/Scuba tray mounted above the window line
Blue 83' Yota beater hardbody - for sale $1,000,000 LOL

From what I can tell it still needs:
Real steering servo
Some kind of floatation device - from the looks of the last ORCRC Vid
BLUE LOCKTITE EVERYWHERE!!!!!




Poser Pic




And the Vid
RCPICS


It's a work in progress but I'm thinkin its almost ready for the Locktite, please post your comments and suggestions.

If at all possible I'd move the battery to the front axle, that should help with all your hill climbing problems, because you seem to roll back and lose traction on the front tires everytime you get halfway up a slope.

Hi, still playing with weight distribution - with all the lead I have in the front tires it still falls forward a little even w/ the Battery in the back. So I guess I just need some more testing. BTW did you notice the steepness of grade on that 1st rock/"slope" in the vid? Near vertical at the top, I just can't help but thinking with a lot more practice I/ and or if someone could get this truck a lot farther UP some of those faces. We'll see...

I put mine up high and I like it there(due to water), but that doesn't mean its the best. Anyone who has an opinion on this, please post it
