Looks great Kym, all your hard work has paid off !!

Sorted out the springs to keep my OCD happy

Rear driveline sorted, I'll probably have to hit Jeff up for a few parts soon-ish. I can't really do much about a rear shock tower until I get a chassis made to see how the body fits. I'll probably have to make a custom lower tower as the back of the Outrage body is quite flat. 20240309_235043.jpg I...

The early tra**as gear cover wouldn't fit so I had to come up with another option, why not try a B4 gear cover of all things? Sure enough it fit with a bit of drilling and tapping and it clears a large 87 tooth spur so plenty of gear options. 20240309_224312.jpg I'm not sure if this will be the moto...

Gearbox time !! I bought another 4620 diff for this truck and I attempted to drill out the output shafts which I wanted to do with my race SRT. Needless to say it turned out a lot better then I was expecting. 20240309_221441.jpg This diff feels better than the other two tra**as diffs that I built, g...

Good fund-raising opportunity, RC10 Talk calendar?

Still waiting on the driveshaft to be made..... I tried to get these stickers modified slightly but haven't had much luck with the local printers, so I gave up and decided to just put the originals on. They fit and look ok... Wonder if someone would get a chuckle if they noticed...... 20240308_23565...

They look nice, are those MCI decals on colored heat shrink?

Gee, that must irritate you....

Not if you don't remember....

Someone say springs?

I bought 15 pairs of springs so surely I can find 4 that work

Know anyone with a modern tra**as 2wd? The newer ones use pin drive but have a stoopid offset gear. Drag race concepts make a pin drive slipper eliminator that uses standard gears.

I always liked this video.. it's sort of a cross between currently watching and playing.

However, who doesn't love Lordi and an F1 car made for the dirt

Your steering servo appears to be plugged in backwards, the yellow wire should be on the inside pin.

Does the truck roll if you push it?

I would take the motor back out and see if it works as normal outside the truck. If it works fine then I would say something is binding in the driveline.

I tend to mainly use scissors to cut out my bodies but the Xacto gives a much cleaner finish. If your using the Xacto break off just the tip of the blade, this prevents it from wandering and gives you more control. When cutting a body with an Xacto support the body on the corner of the table and wor...
