|  TXTurtle phase 3
well ive come to the conclusion that my truck will never be finished... i cant stop rebuilding, upgrading etc... anyway in the last couple days ive installed my revo shafts, new ESC (robbed it out of my buggy), cleaned up the wiring on the truck, mounted a plate at the back for a RX pack... blah blah blah... all i need now is a reciever pack and servo posts for the rear steer.. and better servos somday. oh and we started calling it TXTurtle cuz ive got a friend that races nitro cars and he calls my truck the turtle. only poser shots for now, like i said i need servo posts, an RX pack, and i want wheels and tires.

|    the red line on the chassis is the centerline of the truck for weight. Last edited by dieselfuel; 06-27-2006 at 01:26 PM. |

at the bottom yes, but theres a brace higher up in the chassis on the other side... it cant move. look at the last two pics, its right above the front driveline.
