New build coming up

[slowngreen]

well good luck with those, can't hurt to try. just make sure they are all the same in the end lol

i figured id make them 4 different lengths and use some expanding foam to hold them together after I cut them down. Oh, wait I'm not the guy on ebay....... I'll dig up some rod ends and make some of them and see how they turn out. Might just work really well, might just be a waste of time.......

 

[slowngreen]

lol only one way to find out!!!!!

 

[EddieB]

might just have to buy one of the new proline beetle bodies, looks like a good idea to me.

 

[EddieB]

My order from ckrc arrived at the post office this morning, so hopefully when I get home from work i'll have enough parts to almost make a roller.

 

[rollinlow]

can't wait to see this

 

[slowngreen]

nice!!! hurry the hell up!!! lol...

 

[abadk9420]

Will ya build it already, JK LOL!!!!

 

[rollinlow]

is it done yet?

 

[EddieB]

no, thanks to the mailman not getting out of the vehicle it didn't get delivered today. They apparently drove up the driveway, but never knocked on the door. My wife was sitting in the living room not 5 feet from the door. So I get to go to the post office monday and get it. They must have figured since there were only 3 vehicles out front and not 4 that no one was home....lol

I will believe it when I see it!!!, LOL!!!!

 

[EddieB]

I'd almost have a roller, but the axles didn't come with one of the shock mounts for some reason???? I have to say putting together beadlocks is quite boring....lol

I emailed ckrc to see if they would ship me the other mount..... I think this crawler is trying not to get built, part by part.......
