SPI Alloy's INDY on Revo!

[RevoME]

Hi Folks,

you may excuse the ebay box, Mr. Revo is put up high waiting for his new Rockers which have not arrived 2 weeks after paying for them. (EBAY @ it's best!)
For that reason Rollcage, Exhaust, Bumpers came out, to have better access to everything installing those rockers..

Offset is huge, but looks good and I do understand why Rick claims to cut your laptimes. Tires are the promised Road Dawg's from IMEX.

Have fun, better pics will follow, promise!

and the offset, remember, he's on a box so this changes...

You going to make it so it sits with the arms almost level? If it sat like that, cornering would be a challenge.

Driving it like this would be hard, the ebay box would add quite some drag...
It will sit as it was before, slight angle.

kyled123, TY! The arms are made by *undisclosed* (I could use the word but then hell would brake loose..) actually the reason to have the truck on a box is to avoid bending and breaking the arms, I was told they are soft like paper !:yes:
They are actually not really expensive, 100 bucks does the whole truck with 8arms.

Kyle, those arms are Integy...and I'll leave it at that.

I do like those rims a lot, though, and their web site isn't too shabby either!

Good job, RevoME, looks real good!

Thanks Mr. Wrench!
These were imo the best choice for not going too far overboard on styling.
They have rims called MOTION, SUPERMOTION, HURRICAINE, and CLOVER which pretty much all stay within the "non-controversial" styles. Mounting was a breeze, the rim actually sits extremely tight and solid. Real nice quality, and hand-engraved serialnumber on each one.
I messed up my real left rocker bearings, now I need new ones, and will upgrade all around. Any tips?

Once my rig is back on it's own legs (LOL) I'll post pics, as it will look quite nice due to the offset. The Arms are exposed entirely and I'll need the wheelhubs in alloy next.

Thanks for looking!

TY, haven't tried yet, maybe because I don't have any dimes left.
I would say it won't flip that easy anymore. If it was that high I'm sure I would not drive it haha!

SWEET! Very nice truck, I'm not a Revo fan but it gets my seal of approval(as if that matters,LOL) :thumbup:

At least by now I can joke about it, two weeks ago I would have cried...
If I had to do it again, I'd use RDlogics parts.
Just fired off a Integy dealer inquiry for a friend of mine running a very nice, good going hobbystore in Germany. They are as crazy about alloy parts as we are.
Funny, email came back as unpersonal as possible with a text from their website copied and pasted. LOL, send us your details, we'll send you pricing...
Hahaaaa! I'll surely become a dealer first, and then find out that there is NO PROFIT after I have shipped, imported, advertised and maybe even translated their website for free? One can only imagine what must happen if something doesn't work well. They really do not give a rats ass. But oh well, neither do I!
