Well, my Stampede came in... (56K Warming) Well, my Stampede came in today, so I ripped it apart and looked at it for a while. I ended up grinding the tranny down enough to not have to widen the chassis. I was also abl to get the gd600 in there too! I also went on and hacked 1" off of the bottom. I am also making good use of the hacked up Stampede body! Now am am waiting for the Yokes to come in so that I can put the shafts in and run it. NO MORE SLIPPING BELT!! YAY!!! Here are the pics... http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-189f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-190f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-191f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-192f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-193f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-194f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-195f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-196f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-197f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-198f.jpg |
looks like a performer. great job hacking the stock chassis. :shock: cant wait to see a vid of it. :) |
I like it, keeping it narrow was a good idea for sure... And way to get the spur gear in there like it was meant for it! |
Cool truck- I dig the hacked up body! Just a thought though- I dont think you'll need the GD600 in there. We've found that standard low stampede gearing offers plenty of crawl with plenty of wheelspeed. Unless, of course, you aiming for super low gearing, then by all means go for it! :) ryan |
Well, I'm gonna give the gd600 a try. I am running a 27 turn motor, so I have lots of motor RPM. The only other thing that I want to do is make some new upper axle mounts and triangulate the upper links on the axle side. This will also allow me to get the upper links a little more horizontal. |
looks preety good ryan |
very nice job. after my tlt off of ebay get here, i'll take apart my stampede and attempt the same thing. great work. |
this may sound dumb i know of the stampede like people using the tranny etc but i never knew they were live axle or have you put live axles in my question is does the stampede fit the same specs as the jugg and txt eg they are live axle and shaft driven any help would be great or have i gotten the wrong idea |

I wish I had a video cam... http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-199f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-203f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-204f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-205f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-206f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-207f.jpg http://www.thefordmccord.com/pics/rc...t/Mvc-208f.jpg |
can u tell me the part numbers to the tranny and the stampede shafts for tower? |
nevermind |
Man that is a NICE truck. Nicely set up. So let me get this straight u didnt have to widen the chassis. Right. Also what are the turnbuckles (upper and lower) that you are using? Plan on doing the same thing you did with my TLT. That thing is a bute. Also how did u lock the diff in the stampede tranny? |
