Hello,

Is there any crawler chassis for wheely king axles from vendors or something to buy??

Also,are there better choices for lower link mounts?Now I have crawler king version and they have a lot of slop.What do you guys suggest?

Thanks for your reply.In thread you show me has a chassis from neweramodels,use stock transmission (a little high COG ) but looks good.However as you said,thread is old and neweramodels don't have it.

I have never used CAD and really will be difficult for a newbie.

I like the style of this chassis-build..

Slop as in how? Side to side in the mounts?

Best suggestion I can make for you is to hand draw something you like for the chassis, mock it up in cardboard, then cut it out in the material of your choice, I like poly cutting board from Walmart. I have done several chassis this way, it takes practice to get a perfect chassis but its fun.

Sorry for late reply but had to make a video about the slop.
Here it is.

Do you believe that level3rc lower mounts will solve this problem?Are those more tight than stock plastic of crawler king?

This is a good idea but I am not so good to handmade constructions,for that reason I search something ready for wk!:shock:

if you still have the plastic balls in the rod ends swap them out with some steel ones and that should take care of the slop.

I already run aluminum links with steel rod balls.I think the problem is the plastic lower link mounts.

Yes,I think level3rc has better mount with more holes to adjust the links.

I have seen two kind of chassis.

DNA RC Wheely King Chassis Kit , DNA200

SK Motion: DNA R/C Wheely King Pro Comp Chassis

The second is what I looking for but I don't know where can I buy one.
