It was the mount. It would go down if you moved if that way it moved freely it just went back to that position. These were such a hodgepodge of nut, bolts, an screws that i think he had crossed it so it say crooked or whatever. I found a couple extra so I slapped it on. This one did have the ledge s...

I thought that but it's definitely the mount. It sits perfect till it's tightened down. I do need to play with the turnbuckles but I'm pretty sure the mount is cross threaded to an extent.

It's the caster block. When it's screwed down it, the arm lifts. The screws look to be going in at a slight angle. When the screws are loosen and I sit the caster flush, it's perfect. I wonder if the holes are a little off. I am sure that the forward hole is because I can get it to sit right with th...

I thought of pulling the shock to see if it drops a little more.

Thanks, I'm almost happy with it....haha

Yeah the wheels were a screw up.

I bought them on eBay brand new for $8 shipped for all four. Then I realized they weren't correct.

Any idea what's going on with the rear arm?

After about 6 months I am 95% done with my RC project. I started this to possibly take it to the Vintage Nationals this year, but I may just use it at the track as a runner. Most is original from a friend who gave me a ton of stuff. It originally started at as Graphite but realized I like the gold t...

Sorry to necro and it's probably a moot point now but those Orange RXs from Hobbyking work great. I ordered 6. One was DOA but a small price to pay. Took awhile to get them but totally worth it.

Pair of dogbones for my gold pan project and a Slash 2wd from a trade for my 8 year old.

I'm getting close to finishing mine. I need to rebuild the slipper and just figure out batteries. I'd go the straight down the middle route but I noticed that the holes are not in line with the rear bulkhead and are not countersunk. It's a AB chassis that is predrilled for the stealth so I assume it...

I never thought of them. I went with saddles because I was thinking of doing it in my SC10 4x4. It seemed an easier route.

I'm trying to standardize my batteries.

I'm not hell bent on them though.

Edit: you may be onto something

I'm thinking of putting saddle packs in my gold tub. I was looking at the SC10 saddle pack cradle and think I could make it work. I've seen a couple with saddle packs but I can't remember where I saw them. Anyone use the B44.2 cradle? It looks promising. Those who have saddles, how do you keep them ...

Yeah I've moved on from it on my servo. I've come with a couple things that make eleviate some space.

I'll stick with it on my esc and RX.

Everything in these when I got the couple boxes of parts was taped down, servos, ESCs, battery cup, etc. All of it held too. I know it's more power than 15-20 years ago but stuff was solid.

I've found the 3m stuff is great.

But I can see it coming loose.

They offered to take them back but I had them already in, mismatched, mixed together that it would've been more hassle. I've used a lot of them, a lot won't get used. I've had to counter sink some holes that had the Associated screws sitting proud.
