I finally finished up my Baja Revo project and started the break in process today.

It is a 2.5 revo chassis that I painted black and added RPMS all around an OS 18 TM with a resonator hanging off of it.

It has Integy piggy back on the front the stock shocks in back. I will be replacing the whole shock set up with the GTRS soon for consisntency and to tune in the ride....it is a bit bouncy now. Center diff with stock drive line, but I have THS dog bones all around an dit uses the tall body mounts from Proline.

The lid is a Team Losi Baja that I modded slightly to fit this project or more like I modded the project to fit the lid....anyway I just saw in the lastet RC mags that Proline has just come out with a Baja just for the revo.....figures I am usually ahead of the curve a bit.

Things I still need are :

Carbon fiber Tranny guard
23mm hexes so I can put some BIG tires on it
T6 Roll Bar (ordered)


Theres more I am sure but on with the pics for now.

It covers the septic connection.....ONLY FOR DECORATION if you can call it that.....the real water comes from 580 feet deep in the ground....comes out ready to bottle and sell as spring water...;)


Thanks for stopping by guys.....:redbuggy:
 
i know I'm kidding lol we're not in those days anymore haha, We just had our second well dug last year, last one went dry so we needed to go deeper.

Yes, we were fortunate enough to grab this place 6 or so years ago when you could still afford to buy view property out here. We have 5 acres and the part you don't see is the best view....sweeping valley, lake and mountain views.....I will build a house out there someday. I will post up pics next time the sun shines and the valley is clear.


Thanks for stopping by..

Build on !!!!

The Hummer is a Walmarter my wife bought me a couple of years ago to try and feed my need for RC and speed and all.

It lasted about two hours and then it fried its ESC........SOOOOO we normally use it as an object to jump over..;)


As you can see I have graduated to the really money hungry version of the sport..:celebrate2:

What a neat truck!
I love the truck and the property!

:yes:
 
Nice looking truck there man! I picked up a Proline Baja Bug lid for the 3.3 Revo (Going on my Super-Maxx). Going to be pretty sweet. How do you like those shocks so far?? I have a set, but am going to get rid of them for some GTR shocks with ti-ni shafts.
 
I really don't like em at all....they are all show and weird performance....This is a set I bought from Monkey......one was broken and I am too lazy to fix it....I ordered the GTRS last night.....coming soon.


Thanks fro the comments...;)
 
Nice blue wire protection method! Looks SWEET!!:thumbsup:


Thanks....I like to shrink up all of my wires.,..at 250 plus degrees there in the **** pit I guess i just figure it needs protesting....besides the EZ start system can use all the help it can get...;)
