Hot racing makes some metal lower link mounts. Might as well upgrade if you gotta buy something.  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Are the panels just styrene? How thick, and how tough do they seem to be?

Actually .030 lexan, they should be as tough as any lexan panel. It was really easy to work with. | |

Wow its been a while, Update.... The wife and I are on vacation, we brought both Twins down to Ca. with us. I got to drive mine for the first time on vacation and let my nephew drive it as well. We built a little plywood 5"jump He drove in low gear only and crashed into the curb at full speed a couple of times. No damage. I got my hands on it and bashed for a while on concrete and asphalt, wore the tires quite a bit and blew a bead off the front wheel. Remember locked front and rear |

So I think I am in the process of killing my internal bec... So castle to the rescue. I have a castle bec sitting in a drawer at home. Next the stock steering is starting to get sloppy and bind, so I am going to see what I have in parts bins to use. I am pretty sure I have some traxxas slash 4x4 aluminum belcranks sitting in a parts bin somewhere. I am also thinking of mounting up a truck body on this rig and ditching the cage.... This one might be a ways off though. |
