[Speedracer19]

Good Start.

 

[sandblaster87]

hope your getting a set of new wheels...8 shooters suck!

 

[Colby]

Definetly need new wheels, those wheels are old. And you definetly need those links on the inside of that chassis. All in all, its a start. Hope to see it done soon "thumbsup"

 

[pup]

As Colby pointed out the lower links should be on the inside of the skid. Also in my opinion I would throw the TQ3 in the trash and get a Spectrum radio LONG before I would worry about wheels.

What are you going to do for dig? The PunkRC dig switch is really nice.

Im going to give him my kamikaze dig setup when I make a new setup for my berg. He got the chassis, links, and the elec. tray from me as well

 

[Failedabortion]

The electronics tray is on the wrong axle btw.

X2 on getting a better radio before worrying about the wheels.

Looking good Keith. I'll get your rovers shipped to you Tuesday "thumbsup"

Hey, be sure to add thread lock to ALL your bolts, it may be a pin in the butt, but go ahead and do it before your whole truck is together. also, don't forget to lube all your gears in your axles! "thumbsup"

Yeah, i learned that the hard way. Remember saturday when my truck wouldnt steer good with that servo? It was because i had a bent knuckle, thanks to not lubing the bolts :roll:

 

[eron]

for real? hahaha that sucks dude. well, do all the boring stuff first and it will pay off ;-)
