2deg pivot block - bit of camera deception going .

Coelacanth - lets see your's - i've shown you mine - ( is that a mounty thing )

I've neglected to name mine - Lets call it - BLUE BALLS -

Yes cf sandwich , penguin kit on 1st gen towers. Yes Jam - bit of a blue and yellow fest - was thinking of white spokes with red francis nuts and ball end colour change . The pivot was easy to do and lots of painters tape was used for protection - no visible signs of mod when mounted . Can't bring m...

I have neglected to post for a while - but have still been slowly building a couple buggy's - 1 for the shelf (xx4) a work in progress and a XX runner for my son .

Here's a few pic's of the XX4

Big thanks to JK !!!

Cheers

What a great build - brilliant colour selection .

1 of my personal fav's on the forum - well done

This is great - lot's of chat on this awesome model of losi . I was with u Jammin - only ever had seen 2wd & truck variants of the dirt spec's - stoked to know 4wd frt's are out there - and very appreciative to JK for the invaluable info provided mate :!: Your 100% correct D/Dan - the amount of ...

Set of Dirt Spec rears - did they make 4wd fronts ?? Any info would be great .

more bling for my build's

Christmas & New Years is done - (hope all had a enjoyable festive period) , time to get back sorting out my build's . A few goodies I plan on using - many late night's chasing some of these parts . Any pics - comments of your XX / XX4 hopup's / buggy's - please post. These are such a great buggy...

Just to mix it up abit . Here's a pic of a new built XXT CR that I sold to my mate .

Checks and side motif are painted - jammin towers , mip , trinity etc .

Shouldn't of sold it - but it's gone to a good home

I'm using the E speed carbon shock tower and chassis braces on my runner XX4 .

There much thicker than the penguin items . I don't know if there still available - but I did purchase the penguin rc kit direct from them only a few months ago.

This is going to to be 1 very cool shelfer - do you have any progress shots of the build ? What style of rim you thinking of using ?

Smokin build mate !!!

Found this in the parts bin at my lhs - asked the owner what else he had hidden - he reckon's some alloy versions as well - going for a dig next week. Very happy just finding these .

That is 1 super cool mod there !

I've built the diff's using B fast ceramic balls / rings , steel outdrives on the rear / molded with saver rings on the front and alloy HG diff nuts .

I'm using RC screwz s/s hardware for my xx builds - good price and happy with the quality - here's a pic of the label for the xx4 kit - they do a metric XX4 kit - I stuck with the original sizing .

Can anyone shed light on why they would do a metric kit ? Seems strange to me .

Glad I bought the dremel , fitting the Espeed steering rack required cleaning up around the steering tunnel - the rack was catching on the chassis slightly. You can see from the pics how much material was needed for removal - very happy with this mod - HG ballstuds are fitted
