I'm gonna be that guy to dredge up an old thread. If there was ever a custom build thread that was worth dredging up, this is one of them... I absolutely love this build! I was really hoping that by the time I got to the end of the thread, there would be a link to a video of it running :cry: :cry: I...

just saw it myself after u dredged it up...
quite possibly the best build ever done...ever!

Got it done and tested...New body too! Went with a Twisters mod instead of the Checkpoint for brush wear reasons...plus Twisters are cool. Tis a ripper for sure! runs literally 20x faster than that nicad/tekin setup. tracks straight as an arrow and howls like a banshee...back to my favorite car agai...

Up till a week ago I hadn’t heard barely anything about pro 10’s, and now all of a sudden there is a kit on Facebook and now your chassis rails.... something crazy is going on and I want a pro 10 haha

Not sure. I have a picture of a parts sheet for the Pro-10 and they only show one set of holes, but they also appear to show the placcy motor mount piece also, which is why i was a little confused what you were after. I have a friend who has a load of NIB parts so i have messaged him to see if he ha...

They are kind of odd as they have to be able to pivot in all directions due to the steep angle of the ...

Ahem..... I thought you didn't have shelfers

Thank you Sir. They can't be used on this buggy. I thought at first that it might be possible to utilise them for additional castor at either end but it drops the steering ball end too far down for steering duties and increases bump steer dramatically. I don't know if TAG pilfered them from another...

I gave the shocks a thorough going over with sandpaper and metal polish after de-anodising them. The rears had suffered from years of spring gouging and really needed it. They're not perfect but they look great compared to what they used to look like. Note the brass spring collars. Pretty nifty. Sw...

Loving this build so far!!!

I have a present for you...

Did a peroxide bath on all the whites....not perfect but best i could do
