Thanks I can't wait to get it up and going, the new motors showed up today and I am supposed to be picking up all but the motor plates tomorrow morning, well I am off to build the shocks for now, They might work, they might not, guess I will see.

 

[abadk9420]

Well I picked up all of my VP parts except the motor mount plates, I now have the front and rear axle, and chassis put together as well as the lower links attached, here are a few pics for you to check out.

Well that's it for now.

Looking good. Sexy chassis

Id go with a straight steering link now too, saves so much slop.

That was for mock up, it will not even work with the stock steering set uo and VP knuckles, the little tie rods are to short, I also think I am going need longer lower links. I might just add a spacer for now.

Oh man shes gorgeous, keep it comin *drools*

Does the HC chassis still allow a slot for a lipo?

Went to my buddy Elio's house last night and we got all finished up and even took it to the indoor crawler course for a midnight test run, here is a few pics.

Whats your front/rear belly clearance? Looks pretty high.

 

[frickenjoey]

Heck yeah that looks back to the bone! Sooooo are you sold on MOA now? I always thought it was the way to go but shaftys are still fun. But I am by no means a comp crawler...so for what I do...it's all good.

Not sure I have not measured it just yet. but it is a little short at about 12" and stretched out about 12-1/4" so I gotta figre out how to get it just a little longer.

Thanks I will still be doing a little tweaking here and there but at least it's mobile and the dig is working.

 

[HPI-Killer]

Lookin badass man, so now what with your shafty?

 

[slowngreen]

You should run sportsman with your shafty.

You should run sportsman with your shafty.

The shafty is in pieces, I might by a SCX10 chassis and do a 2.2 scale rig since I have axles that are pretty solid.

A few pics from my comp today, it started off ruff but i managed to get through 9 out of 10 gates on my last course, 10 more seconds and i would have finished the course.
