The orange methods will look sweet but i will miss your red wheels. In all of your pictures that you have posted the red wheels look like Anodized Aluminum on my iMac. "thumbsup"
I am using the picture in post #33 of your sweet rig as my screensaver. :shock: 8) 8) I like your rig that much. :mrgreen:

It's relatively easy to shorten the wheelbase.
I made my own links using 5mm stainless tube with long grub screws in the ends. All you need is a hacksaw and an M4 tap - all easily available on ebay.
The drive shaft options in the kit are enough to cover most bases. My Wheelbase is now 275.

That's what I need mine to be.. have you any up close pictures of yours? Also did you change front or back links? Or both? Can you tell it's my first time playing round with the wheelbase lol

Revisited the same location, less rain of late so was able to navigate the stream a bit more. Ended in disaster for the F-350 as it got a bit too wet :(

how is the body mounted to the chassis? pics? thanks in advance! "thumbsup"
 
Re: J55TTC's SCX10.2 D90 custom build

Also wanting to know how you mounted the body? Also, seeing as I can no longer view your photos, did you cut the frame rails? I have scx10ii rails with scx10 skid and cross braces, not sure how to mount it all up.

Been meaning to do this for ages, the gigglepin gets a radiator and hoses [emoji846] hides the servo and battery nicely!

I had to move the light controller up as it keeps getting wet and konking out so I made a little box to cover it up

Lastly, added a fuel cell to the rear :)
