|  Another Torsion
Im finally working on my maxx again, I got the trans and axles all mounted up all i have to do is make my steering linkage and ill be good to go, im debating between brake line or just using aluminum rod with threaded rod pressed in. I was going to upload my pics but i cant see them on anything but the camera so ill have to figure that out tonight.

sure I already had the axles laying around all locked out and with the plates on them and was going to make a 4-link then i saw the torsion and was like all i got to do is put angle on the top and mount a tranny and im done. I have a wheel base of 17 1/2 right now and im ordering moabs tomorrow.

Done mine a week ago, bu I used flex pad & stick combo to make he chassis. Love this kind of chassis. http://iphong.com/upload/rc/crawler/crawler.mov Wit my design, you can even curve the stick whatever you want to get more ground and belly clearance. or just leave it straight. |
