Howdy fellow RCA members! Here is my latest project. Its actually a Chevy 50's body, and the truggy from my Nissan Titan Truggy project I started a while back...I ditched the titan and started tweaking the chassis and things to make the Chevy body work. here is a list of the things that are included: Drive train: New RC4WD Steel 1.9 Bead locks Reduced Losi Rock claws Axial AX-10 axles, aluminum C's Pede shafts and steel yokes Delrin 4-link system Axial AX-10 tranny HR dig unit electronics: Integy 55T Lathe Moped ESC Traxxas TQ3 RX/TX 1300 MAH 2s lipo Scale Items, and accesories: Winch Lights Scale steering interior(possibly?) Left on the building process: Finish welds and clean up the boogers Add/remove a few tubes Chassis mounted servo mount add foams Sandblast cage Paint cage Sandblast/paint wheels Turn down TLT shocks to coil over shocks Make all 8 links 1/4" delrin, and dye them black or copper Make a skidplate/ possible boadsides Here is some pics of how the build began...

The truck obviously needs more cleaning and welding, so look past the booger welds :retard: |

Update! No pics, maybe later this weekend. But I won some 1.9 Beadlock steelies from RC4WD :lol: I will be reducing some 2.2 claws to 1.9 also. As for the tube work, I re-did the skid plate. It's flatter and stronger, so that should be better. I also re-did the 4 link. I'm still not sure how the upper link mounts are going to work out. There really different and something seems wrong with it. I'll post pics so you guys can see what I'm talking about tomorrow. really, all I gotta do is make the front shock mounts and its drivable. But I still need more supports, details, grinding, blah blah you know that jazz :wacko: |
