Regin K3-2S link setup using TLT axles.
 
I'm the middle of an old school build using the Regin K3-2S chassis which I was given for free.

Most threads with the Regin chassis is dead with no pictures.
So do any of you have chassis pictures of your setup so I can get some ideas?

I have built many TLT axled rigs over the years, mostly using custom chassis.
Regin chassis is first for me.

I don't have any old pictures, but I remember it being kinda a janky setup with not much triangulation.
if I remember correctly the bottom links went straight to the axle and mounted on the single hanger, the top links mounted straight to the top of the axle. I think I made a custom link mount to mount the tops to the center of the axle.

For now I have just made the mock up links, but there is not a lot of link mounting places available.

Looks how I remember mine, Caprinut.
I remember having a truss with a center upper mount to cause more of a triangle.
I also had my servo on the axle with a center mount.

@caprinut, I stole some pics from OSRC to show the truss and Dinky link I was referring to before...

The uppers should mount on top of the axle and a two hole TLT bracket mounts on top of the upper. The shock mounts to the 2 hole bracket to lay the shock down for more travel and a better spring rate. There isn't much triangulation, but they sure did work good back in the day.

I’ve got two Reign K2 chassis rigs still built. Yes I’m using trusses on both axles.

I can help out with whatever you need.

Holy cow! I forgot about these, they are stashed in a box somewhere. I'll have to dig them out. "thumbsup"
