TomG's Hulksta 2.2 Riddler

[Tom G]

Built this 2.2 Pro Hulksta RIDDLER / RC4WD Bully for my son who is in the USAF station in Germany .

Sent him and my grandson my ole 2.2 Berg 5D Dominator a couple years ago to play with. So needless to say he’s been bitten by the Comp Crawler Bug and has been playing at few local Comps.

Not going to bore Y-all with the installation of every part /nut and bolt so here are the Spec’s

So after the initial test/tuning with initial set of rear weight holders made out of Delron on my SuDo Pro truck



Decided I liked the way that truck handled with rear weights. So fired off the computer and wrote the G-Code and made a couple set's out of 7075. For my Truck and my Son's Hulksta Riddler "thumbsup"

Replaced the brass weights with some Pinewood Derby Tungsten weight's Settled on 1.9 oz per side for now

Well after an hour its assembled and ready to install in the truck as a retired CNC Shop owner/Machinist I always looking at Fit and Finish this was an A+++ RobBob for its intended use."thumbsup""thumbsup"

Gear mesh was spot on. The motor makes more noise then the gears.

The only fitment issues was a little more end-play on my Titanium long side axle shaft, the stock shaft fit just fine so I add a .010 shim between the bearing & shoulder an perfect O

Only other mod so far will be to bore about .034 so my rear axle weights will fit over the outer tube bearing retainer's

If I recall correctly you had the axles and chassis up for sale, so I'm guessing that you decided to keep them when you saw the KR4 axle from Mr. Robbob?

I like your upper link mounts and rear weight holders."thumbsup"

Ur right it was up for Sale but didn't move out. I prefer my SuDu PRO Dluxed Berg Ultra lite truck . If nothing else I let it be a loaner for new drivers

The one thing I've noticed with a couple of Kit Cars coming out people look at there price and opt for a RTR that they'll then spend another 3 to $500.00 to make it truly competitive.

But that's good to get new drivers STARTED
