WPL C14

It got a little tricky. On each side of the transfer case is an m3 bolt where I bolted the battery tray to the floor pan. I had to drill a hole to do this but there is a support/standoff on the other side it makes up in. This stiffened it up a lot. Once it all is squared away I think I’ll two part epoxy this individual pieces as a single unibody.

I still need to thread and attach the upper links, fab a steering link, wire the motor and ESC, and then it’ll be ready. LOL. It’s so cute. If there was only a reasonably good source of axles for this scale.
 
While waiting on my m2 and an m2.5 die as well as some 2.5mm stainless rod to arrive, I figured I’d go ahead and superglue the links. LOL. It worked well on my micro Fungi Goat.

I'm finding attaching the links difficult but mostly because I don't have the proper hardware. I'm using the slickrock as my donor car and a lot of it's hardware screwed into a plastic frame/chassis so I don't have the nuts to fit on the hardware I have. It also came with a wacky 3 link suspension setup made of molded plastic that's way too wide for the WPL frame. it's looking like I might have to mod more and think further outside of the box than I was planning to. that's kind of the fun part of all this though. I'm going with slickrock shocks too though so angles are going to be crazy. I think I'm going to have to fab up a plate like those ones they have for the scx-10s to become mud trucks/monster trucks.

I bought some GPM shocks for the Mini-T. Springs are a bit stiff, but size seems to be ok:

My kit came with an extra motor, which is a few millimetres longer than the mounted one:

Lean those shocks over to about a 45* angle and see how it sits.
 
This makes me want to get to work on mine so bad but I have 3 broken ribs and it hurts me to sit at my work bench. Cool little rig
 
The only thing that steered me away from the Redcat axles was they are all the same front/rear steer.

If you would, count how many turns in to turns out those are?
