Jeremy's Vanquish H10-Optic build.

[ferrebee88]

Those are the ones. I think my VRD carbon is the only Vanquish in the fleet running Vanquish shocks. Just about all the rest are Dlux.

I might give them a try sometime in the near future.

@MVRCA I just ordered a pair of the Dlux 92mm shocks. Since you have so many... are the ball sizes the same as the Vanquish shocks? The H10 comes with offset balls, but the Dlux comes with standard.

Might have to put a spacer behind them maybe?

I'll do that if I must, I was just curious about the ball sizes and I'm too impatient to wait and see

Yeah, would be good to know what @MVRCA does with his

Sweet Mother of Pearl. Morning coffee and got ball size questions rolling! Yep, VP balls fit the Dlux shocks.

This is also handy to have in the parts bin: https://dluxfab.com/Spacers-Chassis-Shock-Other-p104749026

Are those 3d printed?

 

[MVRCA]

Mine looks as if they are turned from Delrin, but heck I should just print some on our liquid printer. Never even thought of that.

Would be a lot cheaper. Shouldn't be too much problem with a 3d printed part there. How well does the resin stuff hold up?

Well, it's a wild world out there. We have some resins for quick prototyping and some resins that are starting to outperform metal alloys. Right now I've been using T 2000 for a lot of parts and love it.

I wish I still had my resin printer. But I don't miss the mess and smell.

 

[ferrebee88]

I'm honestly not sure how I feel about these Vanquish Machete beadlocks. I feel like they are missing some color. Call me crazy, but I'm going to roll with the theme and get these pink beadlock rings. These Pitbull Rock Beast XL tires look fantastic!

 

[Doom!]

Cool, the nice thing is you can always change the the theme if you get tired of it. I think the pink rings will go perfect with it.

 

[WickedFog]

Those rings are going to be like the cherry on top man. They're gonna look great on there!

 

[ferrebee88]

Oh wow... not a lot of room for electronics in this chassis. I'm making it work though! I saw where some people put the ESC in the side panel, but i want it all attached to the skid.

 

[ferrebee88]

What a mess!

 

[WickedFog]

I can't wait to see this with the wheels on it. Looking great man.

It's going to look pretty slick. Just waiting on the shocks from dlux and the pink beadlock rings from vanquish! Should both be here in a week or so.

I saw a vid on the Scale Builders Guild and Matt had one with the same livery and the pink beauty rings and it looked great! I think your going to really like it.
