That really isn't that bad at all. I was visualizing something much more extreme. Nice idea.

Can anyone tell me what the kick-up angel on the Ultima chassis?

I bought my T Ultima used and it looks like the owner never put the big screws that attach the top plate with the front bulkhead so the front was a bit bent. I can bend it so the top...

Last post

yup, 20 degrees is correct. The ultima guys use to put the thick associated washers between the chassis and the front of the bulkhead to get the 30 degrees. They also used the longer 8-32 counter sunk screws with a nut on the top of the bulkhead to...

Wishbones drilled with a 4th hole further out? Hehehee

Yup! :D Funnily enough on my CR2 the 'hot' set-up is to drill another hole more in-board than the inner most shock position on the arm/wishbone.

I have an old Traxxas TRX-10 Bullet that is in pretty sad shape. I would like to get it to drivable condition and need to replace many of the parts. One part which is very difficult to locate is the front bulkhead or arm mount. I believe this is...

Chewbacca - Thanks for the picture. This does make it clear that it would be as simple as cutting flush with the shock tower mounting surface. And, good to hear that the upper shock tower mounting points are the same. This may give me a relatively...

Trying to figure out what degree the angle is on the goldpans bottom countersunk holes. Namely the smaller ones. Found a good 90 degree 1/4 countersink bit, just want to make sure of the angle?

This: worked the charm. Good quality too.

So, I got a nice t4 that was run on road from what I could tell. Been sourcing some decent stuff to get it into “truck” form again. So, it came with the stock shocks. Not bad units, but I was hoping to add some newer big bores possibly. I could not...

Last post

Can someone explain the difference in trailing axels vs. the T4 regular axels?

The first versions of the B/T4 had traditional front axles and bearings in the wheels, which had trailing (vs inline) caster blocks. Later models used hex wheels, also...

So I started in building a T2 that I got NIB . It is, in fact, mostly NIB, except for the rear shocks. Looks like someone took the original rear shock parts out, and dropped in a set of pretty well used ones.

Not a huge deal, as I'm planning on...

they could be a number of different manufacturers, but are probably losi or traxxas, both have larger spring diameters than associated.

if the spring rates are close to right for your truck, there is no real issue running different spring...
