"baloo" version 3.0
 
well guys finally had some time this week to work on my new comp rig.
started w/ bender's new sw3 chassis and built from there. has all the usual stuff pede tranny, quark/park 400 combo etc. the only things I need yet are the new shoes I have on order and to paint up a new shell, but for now I'm gonna run my old body till the paint comes in. anways here are some pics, enjoy"thumbsup" as soon as I post this I'm off to take her for her maiden voyage.

looks good"thumbsup"

sods 06-23-2007 03:56 PM

well took her out for her first run ,aside from me being a dumb *** and forgeting to put loctite on the set screw for the drive shaft yoke, she performed unbelievable. thanks brad for a great chassis"thumbsup"

Are you running velcro on both sides of the chassis?

no body posts???:-( :lol: :shock:

sods 06-23-2007 06:49 PM

that's right turtle, no body posts. just a 2" wide x 5" long band of
velcro on both sides.

all i see is velcro.. no proof he even has a sw3..:flipoff:

looks good matt.
and that velcro works wonders, no one in our club has body posts anymore"thumbsup"

sods 06-25-2007 06:20 AM

yeah the velcro holds awesome. I can pick the whole truck up by the body and the velcro doesn't let loose.

crawlaholic 06-25-2007 09:06 AM

I can vouge for that, I use velcro on all my rigs. Baloo is looking good sods!

sods 06-25-2007 11:05 AM

person so far. the rest of the guys are just gonna have to wait.
