[abadk9420]

Added more weight to the front wheels going from 3.5oz to 7.5oz it fit perfectly on the wheel so I went with it, also added a 3rd link mount which is where my temp. ESC is mounted. check it out...

one down one to go

before at 3.5oz this what I'm running in the rear

this is with 7.5oz

the third link mount, home to my temp ESC

a couple more picks of it twisted up on my desk

My new project slowly but surely, it will get there....

Looks good man I can't wait to test mine out tomorrow speakin of that i should go to sleep haha

 

[slowngreen]

coming along nicely man, that weight will help a bunch!

 

[BOUTCH]

Looks good!! How much those weights cost, and where do i get them?:\

 

[h8z2luze]

I got mine on ebay from a guy and he sells 100oz for like 12 bucks shipped.

 

[abadk9420]

I actully just called my local Pep Boys and talked to a lady in the service dept. and told her what the weights were for and then brought the wheel with me so she could have a better idea what I was talking about and she said no problem and gave me like 15oz the first time and then yesterday I went buy there and told her I heeded a little more for the front and she was cool with it, but told me they cost her $77 a box which had to have had 100's of the little 3oz stips...so yeah check with your local tire shops and let then know what they are for and they will probably just give you some.....

 

[BOUTCH]

Cool thanks guys!!!!

Most AutoParts stores carry them, it's the same weights that are used to balance wheels and tires without scratching the wheels. Any hobby shop will also have them as they are used in airplane stuff a good bit. Also, Associated produces them and their distributors will have them as a way to balance and setup their race rigs.

Did a skid plate mod moving the lower chassis side links inside the chassis, here is a couple of pics

I still need to move the links in on the axles, but I need some hardware before I can do that...

 

[CharliesTheMan]

You may not have to move the links on the axle. I have zero torque twist and zero axle steer with my links in the stock location on the axles, on my stock chassis test rig. I've got the links dual triangulated and everything in stock location on the axles. Just letting you know that it might not be required unless it's something you're just wanting to do.

Could you post some pics of your set up so I can see how it looks?

I have the exact set up with dual triangulated, panthers, split battery pack etc. however, since my ax10 is just for fun, I have rear steering. I have no axle steer or torque twist that I can see when running. The dual triangulated skid did the trick

Got my new ESC and 55T motor, I also flipped the transmission around so its ready for a dig when I get one, here are a couple more pics of the new stuff, nothing fancy but it gets the job done for now...

New and Improved Trimmed the Body a little more and slamed it down..

Got more stuff coming for Christmas, I will post more pics then....

 

[h8z2luze]

looks good!

 

[abadk9420]

I can't wait to get the saddle pack and axle mounts, it will help alot I'm sure.

 

[h8z2luze]

Yep! Did you run it yet?

 

[abadk9420]

just out side in the yard, I think I need to recharge the battery

 

[abadk9420]

Added some pics of the body trimmed a litttle more and slamed down...
