My beater On road build/2 other Nitro projects
So First off i bought this car completly stock off a friend last may with some extra parts and uninstalled upgrades.
My first plan was to K5.9 swap it. I bought the motor/mounts/2speed. And began tinkering... well it didnt go as planned, so i sold the motor and bought the Savage X 4.6 motor. (I've heard nothing but good things abuot this motor since the 5.9 over heats). Well after all of that i decided to keep it simple and use the motor for something else. (Hpi Nitro RUSH EVO, which has been sitting for 8 months...)
Anyways, Its been stock up until the accident, which can be found here. After that i rebuilt the whole front end with new suspension, front diff,arms,knuckes, etc.
I recently won a HPI parts lot on ebay within the last week. In that was soooo many little and big things i needed, also stuff i can't use bc there to savage or MT trucks.
.
So after 2 hours sorting that mess, i began the project again...
Mods/hopups/upgrades/whatever you want to call it.
-Rebuilt .15 (T-15) w/new clutch from HPI Rush Nitro Evo MT truck
-HPI Tuned Pipe
-Front suspension
-Rear suspension springs
-Alum. Front diff mount
-Alum. Rear Arms
-Alum. Front Knuckles
More to list as parts arrive
3.7.09 and still waiting on a bunch of parts.
Current Progress:
Added the Rear diff w/new bearings. New rear yellow springs, drained and reoiled shocks. Next i added the New front diff, and diffmount w/suspension. Notice the New front diff mount. I have NO CLUE what its too, but it fits AND is the same exact size as my previous bumper. So no more alum diff mount.
