Tranny is finished and mounted.

Got the chassis done today.









Now it's time to get the axles located.

It is looking like a droop setup will work great for this chassis. I have not tried this before but it looks like it will fall into place. I have to get my setup station back from my neighbor so I can get the links on it and see How it lines up.

I have some issues with the axial tranny motor mounting plate flexing. I will post up what I did to fix it this weekend. KISS method is motion here.

While waiting on the top plates for the axles to replace the juggy parts I worked on the steering.

Here is what I came up with for a bta steering setup.

I figured you would like the CF. Only the servo mounts came out of your stuff. HEHE!

So, do you have bearings in the CF steering link? The holes look too small for them.

I had an idea at work and parts at home so the holes were made small. I will open them up as soon as I find the stinkin parts I had in mind to use as spacers. Nice catch though.

Links are on. I am going to have to make some extensions for the chassis to get the shocks where they need to be. The flex will drop some after verting the shocks.

I need to pick up some servos for this clunker and decide on a speedo.

The only reason I noticed it is because that link is very similar to mine. These things jump out at you when you are familiar with a nearly identical part.
