Hopefully that didn't get shorted out.

I'm not sure but I think I may have hooked the battery up backwards but I can't say for sure because bothe wires unsoldered them self I'm pritty sure I puffed my battery but it's in a hard case so I'm not sure

I did the same thing on my XXX-SCT, reversed the battery wires and POP! Both ESC power wires desoldered themselves and flew off violently......amperage is an amazing thing! :shock::shock:

The lipo was ok, the Tekin RS Pro, not so much.

Got some cage work done on the ol' Silverado. The wires you see are for hazzard lights (been told I need them!). The IROKs were just too damn big for the Jeep project, so on they go to this truck. Tractor Supply Company had 3/16" steel rod for cheap, so I figured what the hell :mrgreen:

NICE! I hope you made one for me.:mrgreen:

I'm thinkng you could do better, you got skillz :mrgreen:. We'll see how it does with IROCKs versus Pitbulls. One things for sure, it's got some more ground clearance "thumbsup".

Wish that "build bug" would bite more often, I might actually have all my rigs done.

Hey you could just go to a Menard's and get a mayo gas torch. Braze it together. As strong or stronger than welding. Plus makes a cleaner appearance

3/16" mild steel rod, Harris Safety-Silv 45 brazing wire and A MAPP gas torch. It didn't come out too bad for eye-ballin' it.

Gonna have to try that. Where is the best place to get the brazing wire from? Would like to build a cage also, like that look

I got mine at a welding supply place. The Harris brand comes as a kit, flux and wire "thumbsup".

We'll see how it does with IROCKs versus Pitbulls.

I'm very curious myself on how the IROCKs do, I love the looks of those tires. What rims are you gonna use?

 

[TrailDawg362]

They're on black steelies right now. I'm hoping the extra weight will help.

The cage looked a little empty so I came up with something to fill in the open space. A Pro-line roof rack, cut in half with the leftover piece as the back. Now she's got some storage area 8).

got a littlebit done to the wraith over the last week inbetween working 2 fulltime jobs and renovating the house! Put my waterproof Velineon setup in my wraith. ESC/motor. So she's 80%water proof! :3

Vids up tomorrow of my exo terra on 4s with 2.2 rc4wd formula paddles. The speed and wheelies are pretty much amazing
