|  SW2 stealth COURIER
Took awhile to gather some parts to get this far:    SW2 chassis with full length skid by Kris  B3 stealth transmission, hopefully Taylor Hobby Products locker ShorTy-made 1/4" STEEL ROD 60/40 lower links  PROLINE FORD COURIER  , with what I hope to be an eye catcher of a paint job.Tires and wheels from Slugzracing corporate headquarters Driveshafts???? Electronics??? Upper link/servo mounts??? lots of stuff I forget  Last edited by DeaDShorT; 03-22-2007 at 09:32 PM. |

Good job man, I'm interested to see how you mod the driveshafts to fit dogbone outputs from the tranny, keep us up to date. |

MMMM, Michelob Amber, I knew there was a reason I liked you Much faster than the stick build so you should be done before the next comp I am also thinkin' you might have more ground clearance than you need since we do more slickrock/sandstone. |

Slugz...Tested any wheels lately? :-P Yeah, this ones progressing just a touch faster . It'll be out there before too long.I'm just playing with links and such now, what kinda belly clearance should I be looking for...I'm right @ 3" as pictured, 12-7/16" wheelbase. Everything's easily changed right @ the moment. Was thinking of toying with some high clearance rear links and maybe some Delrin. |

Killians=Coors=... I won't go there. Actually Killians is the only Coors brand beer I can stand to drink. Ran out of the Michelob Ultra Amber, and the Blue Moon wheat was just not doing it for me without the orange slices . My wife got me going on that little trickHere's what I'm thinking for the body and paint sceme   Maybe Make the white silver?? Deleting the KTM logos...maybe. I think it would look cool on the Courier. Last edited by DeaDShorT; 03-23-2007 at 07:21 PM. |
