Time for a rebuild with a new prototype Fubar Chassis.

[Red Rockcrawler]

I pick up my rig tonight from Jeeper_05. I got to work getting the steering reset up using my original Fubar Crawlers OTA steering link Just replaced the ends to T-maxx ends and bent it a little more.

Now to try to clean up the wiring and go through the rest to get it ready for Nats.

 

[jeeper_05]

Glad you like it Cory, also glad you are doing something with that wiring!

 

[bmuzz1]

looking like it's coming together Cory and man the old servo horn was beat to sh!t! :ror:

 

[MTHead]

Nice! Now tear the axle back down and move the upper link mount back to it's original location... :ror:

 

[Red Rockcrawler]

I was looking at my rig and seen it was not centered on the links so I pulled the upper link screw to find this. Both screws were bent.

I never really noticed before. Those screws have been in this rig since it was built 3 years ago. I do zero maintenance on the rig between comps. Until I installed the super 300 it was still running the stock bearings.

If it is not broke then no need to work on it. It gets cleaned and lubed when I get a chance. I beat on it at comps I have a heavy trigger finger. So for 3 years on those screws is alot. They have gone through 3 seasons of comps in our club, awcc, worlds, apnwq, pnw qualifier.

I picked up a new upper link mount screw just need to cut it down to the right size. I also did some modding to my Losi shocks. I drilled my pivot balls to take a 3mm screw so I can flip them up side down. I also cleaned them and re oiled the. I also installed some losi MLST springs on them so when I turn the tires won't hit the springs. They hit the nuts just a little bit.

I also cleaned up the wiring the best I can do. Since I hate cutting up the original wire on the electronics parts.

True DAT!! If it's working now don't fawk with it!!! Pleanty of time for cleanup later...

 

[Red Rockcrawler]

Yeah right now it is working good and nats is around the corner. I don't want to get there and have problems or issues. I will be cleaning things up after nats.

Today I made a battery mount out of ABS for my cheap battery pack elite 2200 3s. I drilled and tapped 2 3mm screws in to the skid plate to hold it in place. I also heated it up and put a bend in it to clear the lower front links.

Is that steering tierod still available if so what would acomplete chassis link and steering package run

 

[Red Rockcrawler]

Moved my punk dig down in to the chassis so the only thing that is left up high is the receiver. I also received a package from Super Dave. Some 300m 3rd gears.
