SCX10 Honcho dually and light upgrades

[1SLOWSS]

Things have finally calmed down here a little around the house so I've started messing around with my Honcho again. I installed dual rear wheels more as a joke than anything but, honestly am starting to like them :lmao:

Took it out yesterday for a shake down run

Put my 4 cell lipo in with my 35t motor and 17t gear and was very happy with the wheel speed and climbing capability of the combo. My clutch was too loose and I forgot my socket so couldn't get all the power to the wheels in a bind or at WOT but I was very happy. It also does pretty cool doughnuts even with the dual rear wheels.

For my lights I am using a light controller from HeyOK and chaotic crawler LEDs

Is that custom front bumper?? Looks good. I welded up an aluminun one a few years ago fro my scale FJ cruiser.

Thanks, wish I could take credit for building it but, I got it on Ebay from a fella in Turkey last Winter. He just recently joined up on here, his handle is Engin 13. I love the bumper but really wish it was a little stiffer. Although, all the dents do give it a more realistic look I suppose! LOL

im building a bumper very simliar to that right now using 22g sheet metal.

nice dual rear wheels! do you have any part numbers you used to do that?

 

[OKJeepin]

I like it, looks dang good! I also like that front bumper, does he sell them on the forum here?

 

[snohiker]

nice setup were did you get the controler for the lights ide really like to use it

 

[91Bluestreak]

how'd you do the dual wheels? Looks nice I like the bumper, yeah the dents add to the realism.

 

[1SLOWSS]

Thanks guys. I'm really enjoying it.

The dual rear wheel adapter I got from Ebay. I just did a search and don't see any listed right now but, they come up from time to time.

I got the bumper on Ebay as well last Winter. He used to make several different versions on it and they show up on there every once in a while but not showing any right now.

As for my lights. I am using 2 things that HeyOK on here makes and sells. Al is a great guy and makes a very nice product. Highly recommend him "thumbsup"

I like the dual rear wheels..nice wheelspeed looks like it'd be a fun rig to tug with

thanks for the link. those would make my extremly lifted wroncho even more over the top!

No problem guys, happy to help. Like I said, I did the duals more for a joke but am very surprised with the look and the added stability/traction they have provided. Let's see some pictures of your trucks when you get them on!

 

[17dean]

What mods did you have to do to get the dually's on and can you post the link where you got them from RC Bro?"thumbsup"

 

[1SLOWSS]

Very easy to install them. Just screw them on. Pretty simple stuff. Look up the thread a couple posts and the link to them is there.

 

[CHOPPERMECH11]
