starting maxx build, q's!!
 
well i started my maxx build and i am getting knee deap in work when i saw that if i took the bottom struts and flipped them over and conected them to the tranny like that then i could make a suitable chassis. if u know what i am talking about please tell me what u think about this!

are you sayin that your using your chassis braces to make a chassis? if so lets see it.

Silversamps85 05-06-2007 06:51 PM

Have you done it yet, or are you just thinking about it. sounds to me like it wouldnt flex that well and if it did the plastic would become weak really fast. All you can do is try it and let us know, take some pics too.

yea that is what i am thinking, well i have the braces hooked to it but i am going to have my freind make me some out of aluminum, and i will post some pics soon

alum would be the way to go, but if you got a guy to make stuff for ya, why not just desgn a purpose build chassis so you know you'll have room for link and shock adjustability.

that does sound right but i am just going to use this as my starter to see how it works, and well i got that running i will start my tube chassis. so i just want something to drive around, i will have the plates tomorow night so some pics soon!

haha well i guess i overestimated my freinds speed on making these so i will have them monday and i am probably going to let my freind use these because i am going to make a torsion cahsis

ok well i got them back and they arent long enough to make a suitable maxx crawler so i made a tlt crawler out of them tis a droop and it works well, but for the maxx i am going to do a pimp slap, i will post pics this week!
