***CDW 1.0 Chassis Build***

How close do the tires come to the shocks with them mounted way outside like that? The .9's look good on there."thumbsup"

Mine barely touch the springs Eddie, mounted the same way;-)

 

[yotachump]

Looks good with the new shocks on there Anthony"thumbsup"

Really was not going for looks:lol::lol::lol:. But I can say from the little time I got to use it today, is that this new setup works 100% better then my last shock/link setup.:lol:

They rub but its not bad at all.

awesome build"thumbsup", what is your ground clearance? If I am not mistaken, those are the 4" shocks right?

You're like me then:ror:. The last thing I worry about is looks, I'm all about performance"thumbsup"

The .9's are 3.5" shocks.;-)

Thanks.

I have 2.800" of ground clearance. And the Losi .9" shocks are 3.464" eye to eye with the biggest limiting spacer it comes with.

2.8" of belly clearance is great while keeping the COG low "thumbsup" just got my CDW chassis in the mail, can't wait to try it out!

So to build them .9's you need...

4-double o-ring
4-shafts
2-packs of threaded body's
1-piston pack
1-swivel balls
1-e-clip pack
1-shock ends and cups

Is this right?

Here ya go:

LOSA5055 qty. 4 Shock Bodies
LOSA5015 qty. 8 O Ring Cartridge
LOSA6100 qty. 2 E Rings
LOSA5046 qty. 2 Shock Pistons
LOSA5064 qty. 8 Ti Nitride Shafts
LOSA5147 qty. 4 2.75" Spring White

You might want to consider using the traxxas rod ends also, I personally don't care for the Losi ends.

That's a nice try at trying to get me to buy you some shocks!:lol:

Todays breakage. 2 Axial CVD pins:x. I was not even in a bad bind at all when these broke?????The pins are what scared me the most when I bought them, They are only .059" thick.:shock:

 

[dpdsurf]

I didn't know you broke two!

Nice job making it through all the hard sections today! Your rig is dialed in nicely. "thumbsup"

I'll get some video tomorrow.

Yea, I just broke another one when I got home. I got my dig finally setup and working and I went and tried it out and then, SNAP, another one broke:x.


Now I dont know if I can make it out there tomorrow. I need to go to hobbytown and pick up some more spare pins before I come out. I also need to get 2 more battery's. One of my battery's wont take the charge anymore. so If I come out I wont be there until about 2:00 or so.

 

[Rocksmith Eng.]

That thing needs some Ti uppers bud, and maybe some new CVD Ti pins?

Sorry about that :shock:
I posted up before I was completely awake this morning.....

 

[Robbob]

:shock: now you got me thinking i need to check mine, went to clean the truck last week and found i spun an aluminum hex inside my Junfac wheel. wondering if i tweaked my pins.

Rocksmith..... That would be awesome if you would make some Titanium CVD pins for the Axial CVDs8) I would buy several sets and don't care what the price is."thumbsup"
The Axial cvds are a great design, i love mine, but the smaller pins are a weak point.

 

[yotachump]

Got the links finished today:lol::lol::lol:

 

[mtnyote]
