This whole time I thought you cared

Thanks Rick@ Sniperfab. A whopping 17 grams with Steel rod balls. Al balls should be here Friday from RPP. Will weigh them again.

Got a pic from Szczerbza of my lower Ti links. Should be here tomorrow according to the tracking. Gotta love the follow through with the instructions. Bet even Sally could put them on right:ror:

Ordered a set of the shiny Axial Icon shocks with the machined pistons(gotta be like 11enty million times better than the others) Hopefully, according to tracking they and the multitude of springs i ordered will be here Friday also. Might actually get to crank it up over the weekend8)

Looking forward to seeing it all done, good luck with the build.

Thanks

ok noob question. why do you need the hd 300's? no way to get reg super 300's to work with that rc bro tube and vp knuckle set up? just wondering I have reg super 300's and a set of them sweet front tubes on order...any advice?

Bet even Sally could put them on right:ror:

I'd take that bet. "thumbsup"

You will need the 300HD or the Dlux modded Axial universals to run the Wraith knuckles and C. You can run the og 300s with Axial Ax10/SCX type Cs and Knuckles or the axial/berg, depending on which version of the 300s you have. Axial/Axial or Axial/Berg(Cs/Knuckles)


You will have to get RcBro or someone similar to mill out the Cs to fit the splined version of the tubes.

Package day! Finally got enough stuff in to get it rolling this weekend. Got Dlux working on some shafts for me and got my tubes drilled out for them.

Before they were 18g now 14g

Lowers via Szczerba(coolest guy ever, would not let me pay him a cent for his time"thumbsup")

Machined pistons sooooooooo much smoother than the molded pistons"thumbsup"

All current pieces assembled...

Can anyone passing through here tell me what shock bladders everyone is using on the cap/bladder mod on the SCX shocks? Can't remember for shit

 

[sourdojack]

Traxxas mini revo shock bladders TRA7062

Be sure to take out the stock O-ring

Great build by the way! My room mate is getting all his parts together for his berg rebuild and it happens to be all the same parts you have!

 

[Szczerba]

Coming together nicely!

Rig is looking smoking! I myself use the associated bladders I believe for the rc18? Wish I could remember the part number.

It helps to drill a small hole. After you close the shock bleed the rest of the air. Then use a small set screw to close it up.

I have found it to be the best way to bleed a SCX10 shock.

Coming along nice! Tubes pretty easy to drill out?

Tubes pretty easy to drill out?

Not too bad. Built a jig for the drill press. By hand it would be easy to drill them off center or angled. Dlux said the hybrid axles are @7mm and I got like 7.3333:ror:. Should be fine.
