looks sweet! nice to see something diffrent than a stock chassis!

[Hillcrawler]

Thanks, so far I am really liking the chassis

[RcBro]

Rig is looking great!

[mascman]

Looks cool.

Did you make those lower links? How about some info on them?

They are just stock axial bent links, they get the wheelbase a little under 12.5

I guess it's time for an update, I got some pictures of the Rockshow finished up and running

Awesome T1ELCC Hows the wheel speed with the 45 and 3s?

Thanks, the wheelspeed is decent, but the clod stall is a little more than I like. I think 35 turns would have been a better choice.

[hardhead]

Would'nt that make your clod worse though?

Not that I know of, because with the 45 turn when I geared it up to get more wheelspeed it had more clod stall but when I gear it down it is slower but some of the clod stall is gone, so I think with the 35 turns I can gear it where I have good wheelspeed but not have as much clod stall.

[hardhead]

I run 3s 35t's on my clod and have alot of wheel speed and very little clod stall so you maybe right.

Ok cool, I might have to try some 35 turns down the road and see how they work.

Looks awesome, how does it handle? Do you think coming up with a way to raise the upper links would help out?(on axle)

Drill and tap the MOA mounts.

[Hillcrawler]

Hey,

It handles good, I like the way it drives, but I do plan on drilling and tapping the Back upper links to move them up some.

It will probably give you more clearance for the shocks also.

I know on mine, I drilled the mounts on top...Jeepial like them on the sides.


I'm not a good enough driver to know the difference so I'm leaving mine on top!

I've got everything together and it works so I'm leaving it alone.

I bent my top links to provide clearance...since this pic I have inverted my shocks also.

[Hillcrawler]

Yeah I think I will put mine on the side so it will have enough clearence on the cross braces on the chassis.

I can't move the front upper links up because of where I mount my battery, I wouldn't be able to get the battery in or out.

Can you try inserting your battery this way: push down fully your front suspension then insert your battery in the opening towards the skid below the front motor.

I think mine worked best with the fronts on the side and the rears on the top. It gives good geo. and keeps it from pulling a front tire in a bind. Also with the rears on top of the MOA bracket it acts like a bump stop so you can run a little longer wheelbase but will not hit during flex.
