What are you working on??

[Levesque87]

I took mine apart and rebuilt it, mine moves a little 1/8th to 3/16ths of an inch max.

Well....it's done, mostly.
I will be running a Toyota body with a honcho rear cage and in order for that to happen I need to loose the transmission (no heart burn there..) and install the original style shock hoops. If I install the included body posts it mounts the Honcho style lid about 3/4 too far back, the posts are offset and I if I arrange them to move the body ahead (not enough though) the hoops interfere with the bed. The newer axles have the shock mount a bit closer to the axle centerline as the mount and diameter is different, this is why the hoops are further back than the original. As I was building it I was concerned about the lack of "customizing" that could be done, things are pretty locked in place but I guess when I'm done I'll have a bit of a mongrel on my hands!

I'm glad the rtr I ordered comes with the old trans. Not hearing very good things about the new one.

I'm replacing the clutch release piston/throwout bearing combo in wifey-poo's 1:1 scale Wrangler..........

Good thing it's high enough that I can get under it to work. Lol

Ebay has a US vendor now who has these chinese wheels in stock. Alientec is the company.

Looks good Thunder. love the color. That scx is a 12.5 wheel base? Body wheels base looks a little longer. right around 13"

 

[Full Throttle Rob]

Thunder, that looks great!!!

....and oddly familiar as well..... LOL

Are you going to upgrade your 1:1 Cherokee to look more like your 1:10 Cherokee now?:lmao:

Didn't like the stock bumper on the scx2, so I put a dingo bumper on it. I like it much better.

 

[Kaler]

Time to get started on the Chevy! Gettin a little mock up work done to see how I'm gonna fit everything under the cab, not much room under there will be quite a challenge.

 

[skybolt]

Damn that looks nice!
