|  Building a 6x6 scale rig
Just a quick question...for the people who have done this: How hard is it to make an axle have the outputs on both sides? I have 4 axles and plenty of other tlt parts. Is it a matter of just getting two plastic axle case halfs w/ the output portion to fit together? I plan to possibly start a new build tonight  thanks, James |

| This is what I have bookmarked: Building a trial truck? Pretty clear, also you need to flip the rear axle to rotate properly. At least that's what I've read somewhere ... |

Thats what ive been searching for. As long as the axle goes together alright the only other big problem ill probably run into is the shock mounting and link setup in the rear. Im planning on using my MFM scale chassis so i need to try and make it work with that. I have lots of cool ideas...now lets just see if I can go ahead with it Last edited by jamesbernatchez; 06-01-2007 at 02:41 PM. |
