Arnold Salvageinator in Termination to Salvation HORROR film

[License2iLL]

Well I had leftovers from my Jr modern runner build and eventually I knew I would probably get around to possibly putting some of it together for another build if I could do it cheap. As I started to go through it ...low and behold a few surprises amidst would be junk. Incoming of PURE GORE, guts, and blood....WARNING THIS FILM HAS YET TO BE RATED!! GET DOWN!!!!!!!!! This is one ugly motha!!


What the?? Let's get the fugg outta here!!! GET TO DA CHOPPAAAAA!!!!!!!

Newly re-brushed Trini posing a ray of hope here. COME WITH ME IF YOU WANT TO LIVE !!!!

The rumors are true ...yes that's a Novak 410hpc and from what im understanding some real good times are possible. NOO not like Marylin Monroe to JFK but after a serious cleaning this surgeons "job" can be undone.. ITS NOT A TUMOR!! Its not a tumor at ALL!!

Thats a 2.61 XX retro... DYLAAAAANNNN YOU SOB!!!!!

I"LL BE BACK.

STICK AROUND.

Yeah! A gnarly looking build with all the rough 'n dirty left overs........

There should be more of these!

That looks horrific! And that bellcrank setup looks... Awkward! You might want to switch the bellcrank arms, the one on the left should be on the right and vice versa

I'm building a salvaged basher myself, I went with a wrecked carbon chassis because I was missing spare upper braces on my scrap plastic ones.

Btw, that chassis looks WORSE then any of my scrap ones! lol

That setup would work fine as long as the servo was mounted with the horn & connecting rod towards the center of the chassis...where the "L" is oriented doesn't really affect the functionality as long as the servo is mounted properly in relation to the "L".

What's more humorous is the link connecting the 2 bellcrank arms is longer on one end than the other, unless it's an optical digi-cam illusion.

Actually.. the Losi bellcrank setup is asymmetrical, in that orientation the link bar will stick out further on one side then the other.

You learn something new every day.

For oval racing the chassis be fine but for offroad not so good.It will more than likely break where its machined so far back on the sides.Very little braceing left.don

I disassembled last night its all in soapy water!! I got it for like 7 or 8 bucks as you see it. It also had a front end. And strange short arms I will not use along with an RPM X brace. It is quite the HORROR but I told u guys this!! Now you won't be able to sleep at night!!! I wanted to take more footage of the wiring chops into the poor ESC but I didnt want you guys walking out or fainting.

I was able to disassemble one set of bearings. And they may be ceramics!! The rest gave me a hard time and i gave up taking them apart...but they were in real good shape. All soaking in alcohol now. The tranny case could use replaceing...but im not sure if that will happen right now.

[LosiXXkid]

Mmm! I'm lovin' it...!

[License2iLL]

It bothered my concious so I did them all.

Apparently someone had shortened the original slipper shaft and hence it had a fracture, and had to be replaced.

I used kit a3121which is tall plate and rear axle washer...not impressed right off the bat.

When measured it was only .002 in thickness difference from the b4 slipper plate which I like due to greater clutch surface area. So basically I paid for a washer as of course I used the b4 instead due to the losi not appearing as perfect match to mix up and I had the B4 kit as an extra. Im going to look this over 1 more time because I did this washer before with b4 slipper and I think it was eating the washer up so I took it off that time. Ideally the shaft should have its ridge higher up so the slipper plate would top out onto it....then it would not require a washer or anything. And there would be no risk of possible binding.

Bearings came out super super smooth.

Rotating assembly super clean.

A chassis from one OUTSTANDING MEMBER OF SOCIETY. As for the old one? CONSIDER THIS A DIVORCE !!!

Minor scuffs and such but cmon did you see the original? YOU ARE NOT YOU! YOU'RE ME!!

Like new after a good wash and polishing.

Steering posts given the 1000grit wet.

What can I say I like reinforcements.....C'MON BENNETT LETS PARTY!!

[License2iLL]

Wheel bearings treated differently with air compressor, liquid wrench silicon, air compressor again, 1-2 drops of Boca Bearing juice!!

Refurbed and treated.

A little jazz.

So much freespin in this tranny!! Silk smooth too!!

These axles are not chinese refurbs......L2ILL LLC!!!

An AWESOME TIPOFF from 1 GREAT and GRACIOUS MEMBER.

A little bit of drilling but it lead to one TIGHT FIT.

Epoxy refurbished ready for drilling. BENNYYY!!!! SCREW YOUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!

Looking good there! Much less hideous Frankenstein like!

I don't know if it really effects much but I tend to install those sliders so the female half is on the transmission, I guess it's an irrational thought that having the female portion pointing down will keep dirt from working it's way inside due to gravity.

Most likely just irrational ocd...

yeah that baby was oval raced by the looks of that top shaft. beeing an oval racer myself i kinda like that chassis it looks like it was milled pretty good. could you post a side shot of the blank chassis?
