yeah haha there a bit grumpy having to stay inside. I think some fresh air will cool them down. how is everyone keeping there figures in there RC's?

I would try a small amout of hot glue or a small amout of silicone caulk that way you can still remove them if need but they will stay in place when driving otherwise I dont use figures either

Nice! Wish I had your patience to do tube work. Will it be a 1.9 or 2.2?

The tube work I have about 3 nights or 10-15 hours, the rig is 2.2 almost done need to adjust the link spacing from the chassis and mount the electronics

Nice build so far, you really made some progress on that one!

thanks, once I get everything all laid out and final link sizes I'll make some titanium links for everything, I wouldn't mind getting a small lathe for at home for making links but the one at work has better capabilities.

The body is painted and almost finished up, electronics are mounted, trannys in but still messing with link placement and bends to clear the drive line

Wow, that turned out pretty fawking sweet! "thumbsup""thumbsup". The fender flares look great on that body, did you use glue along with the bolts?

 

[Super]

Thanks buddy, no I didn't use glue, should I have? I was just gonna use a drop of thread locker on the bolts. I decided to use the black wheels. Just got some pix. Added some stickers too. All I have left is to finish the lights.;-) I'll get those pictures loaded up.

Hoosierdaddy told me to use shoe goo on mine, RC4WD also says to use adhesive plus the bolts.

Lets see those "10 Years Strong" decals on there, represent!

That's better 8). Windshield wipers and mirrors would finish it off nicely.....but you know what happens to mirrors on the trails :lmao:

I just need to paint the bed interior on mine, then I can start assembling all the chrome bits and details. Stupid HD gears are out of stock for now.....shoulda bought 'em sooner.
