Heres my Maxx. Its almost done Needs a Jeep Body and some more Gear Reduction.

rckjeep · 11-22-2004, 04:45 PM

Where are you going to put the battery? Whats your crawl ratio. I'm unsure of maxx ratios

crawlmaxx · 11-22-2004, 05:13 PM

Where did you get the pieces that mount the shocks to the a-arms and the lockout brackets on top of the bulkheads?

Thanks

I made everything by hand .I looked at a lot of Maxx Crawler Pics and made the parts I liked. The battery will go Up front .The Gear reduction I Made .Im going to a 72spur and a 9t pinion. The Links are Arrows with 6/32 treaded rod going all the way trough .It a 16.5 wheel base. If anyone needs measure ments just ask .

Is the chassis a Rockraider or a copy? It looks slightly different. I like it though. I'm looking at final drive ratios(crawl ratios). I'm looking to keep it around 100:1 with a lathe motor. My TXT is @ 141:1 with a 27t motor and I like it. I plan on making shock mounts and servo mounts tonight.

Yup I looked at the Rockraider When I built mine.All the chassis Ive built are Aluminum side plates .On my TLT i Went more scale and it has a Frame . But... The Maxx That set up wouldnt work. Got any Pics?

rckjeep · 11-22-2004, 05:59 PM

Bigbadwhitey · 11-22-2004, 06:43 PM

It took a while ,Just a Drill and some files .I'm doing to make a nother for my TLT and take of the Plastic GD600.

Have you had problems with the plastic GD or are you just going for coolness factor?
