i like the twisted bike chain for the link mounts.
pretty smart thinking!

thanks i was just about to post pictures of how i did that. i use to build bikes than i found out that rc's are funner, so i had a lot of old chain layin around i needed some mounts so i heated and bent them to shape.

 

[goobs]

yea i built the last two bikes of mine and i still have 5 more lying around. i might have to try doing some links like that on my pti.

still a secret :lol:

 

[fordzilla1]

now i dont know what to call it :roll: any suggestions?

paint is basicly done.

looken good should go back to to olive drab and done a flat black frame

 

[cabsover78]

yeah nice job on that paint job. You should do a better mounting system for the body though. It ruins the nice painted body. but nice job again."thumbsup"

 

[fordzilla1]

:lol::lol::lol::lol: found a random body just layin around my room, and i had to try it. :lol::lol::lol::lol:

surprisingly it fits very well. perfect length and the tireas almost fit under the fenders.

why the top links have to be parrallel with the ground?

i wanted to know the same thing.

 

[fordzilla1]

oh and another thing one of my friends was wanting me to traid my tippman 98 custom paintball gun for his stock t-maxx. i was thinkin i could use it as parts for my truck cause i dont like gas.

i was thinkin shocks, esc, drivelines, etc.

would the transmison from one work in my truck if i put and electric motor on it?

so the steering sill be like it should be so u dont aim the steering at the ground

that would be a good idea for the tranny but ud half to buy an esc for it and a motor just set the slipper clutch to what u want and make a motor mount that will mount to the tranny and it would be awsome but ull need a three channle controler if u want reverse

What tranny are you gona run? And whatever it is, you will have to put it below your frame because there will be like a 80 degree drive shaft angle. You need a drop down in the middle of the frame, then you will have a better link angle and drive shaft angle. As of now i don't see it goin anywhere."thumbsup"
