| TH budget truck
Hey guys I have been having a great time with the TH. Its been about ten years since Ive been in RC. This beast brought me back. I was messing around with my RC stuff. I came across my favorite RC body and decided to hack it up. Last edited by scsbronco; 04-28-2014 at 07:59 AM. |

YUP just came in about 5 minutes ago. I have some old 2.2 paddles that work really well. I just need two more and it will really fly. So far my only complaint is that I broke the steering servo somehow. Last edited by scsbronco; 02-15-2014 at 09:33 AM. |

Love the Rough Rider body. Grew up watching them in the desert and my desert racing blood is part if what made me get a TH in the first place!

Stayed with the original body panels. Broken so far...... 1. M2 bolt in motor mount. Drilled through the back side of mount to get bolt out. 2. Front suspension push turnbuckle. 3. Front driveshaft allen keep loosening up All stock except 17mm spacers and servo. This truck should have been this wide from the factory!! I need to get some high offest wheels. made my own beefy shock tower bracket. I started out by hand the switched to the Bridgeport at work. I wish I would have started on the mill.

Clean design. Ya might want to rebuild your shocks though. That chassis is lookin a bit oily.

I was in the process of cleaning it. Its windex all over. I was rushing to get back in the house to see the kids. I pulled the sides in and through bolted it. Last edited by THX_138; 05-02-2014 at 11:04 PM. |
