Default THE disco 3!

Hey all this is one of the many looks my disco has undergone ;) it's on a CC01 chassis with a few modifications:

Trimming
55t HPI crawler motor
1.9 landy wheels
1.9 landy tires
uprated springs
uprated shockers
etc

enjoy the pics

Looks quite nice. Of course Red cars with black wheels is may favorite color scheme.

thanks for the compliments guys! not sure on voltage but they are 85mm long. springs are a bit too stiff so I softened them and added more weight

Did you have to do anything different to mount the shell high like that? My tires sometimes rub on my Pajero.

no not really.I am just using the stock mounts but I moved the lower body pins up 2 the second highest hole. But the wheelbase is on longest setting. No wheel rub!

Looks great! It looks very similar to mine. For body mounts I custom made some out of brad hole nuts and 1” washers. This hides the body posts from sticking out of the hood. Slap some Velcro on and you are good to go. It holds really strong too. For the rear I drilled holes in the roof to pin the rear. It was easier to disguise the holes with the roof rack implace. Just an idea for your next body.






Here is what it looks like all mounted up.
