So it took me 2 months to build where I'm at. ALOT! of build and tear down over and over and over. I looked at alot that was out there but I could not use their idea because I have the Hitec HS5645MG...big mo fo could'nt work behind the axle. So thats why I used that location.

Aftermarkert parts from RC4WD:
Solid aluminum lock diff.
aluminum beadlock wheels
aluminum steering knukles
steel extended links
steel extended chrome finish driveshafts
steel shock link clips
Full ballbearing 0 bushings

And ofcourse do it yourself custom parts, I made them at work, shhhhh.

All the electronics are on back order TOWER HOBBIES!

I will be using MAX AMPS!!! batteries they work great in planes.
Novak sintered crawler system
Futaba 2.5 G

I dub thee Planet rock, I see a moon and stars.

A custom body in the making coming your way soon.

You can always upload pics to photobucket, then link to image here - 640x480 is the best size. Anyways, that is pretty good work. What are your plans for the stock TXT-1 rims/rubber, I wouldnt mind getting my hands on a set *hint hint*.

Centipede · 07-21-2007, 09:31 PM

I DID IT!!!

EeePee · 07-22-2007, 06:42 AM

That came out real nice dude. The TXT is a great truck to own. Never let it go, you'll regret it eventually.

Keep us updated.

Scattman · 07-22-2007, 08:01 AM

Looks good. What about the bottom of the chassis? Will you be adding a skid? Looks like the bottom of the chassis could possibly hang up on the rocks.

Nonetheless, looks great.

Stormin2u · 07-22-2007, 09:06 AM

Well done

Post some photos when it's complete

Centipede · 07-22-2007, 12:08 PM

Thanks Eee Pee, she's my first, I'll never let her go.

Centipede · 07-22-2007, 12:09 PM

You're gonna love the Novak in there. Power to spare, and it's nice to know the drivetrain can take it

dittohead · 07-24-2007, 09:37 PM

Please report back to us when you get the novak crawler system up and running. I have a txt that is in need of more power and i want to go with novak this time

Centipede · 07-24-2007, 10:48 PM

Thanks microgoat for the support, I'm hoping it will be worth the wait.

Centipede · 07-24-2007, 10:53 PM
