Scrappy,do ya need any more 1.96 cases ? I got 3 left over from BITD

[losiXXXman]

I think I recall one of the articles detailing a pro associated driver BITD claiming the tub could be cut down by half of its original height with no appreciable loss in integrity. I think I;m going to do mine by that method. Scr8p's has a very nice visual presentation though!

Those arms sure do look good on the car

those are actually the dynotech arms. your arms are being used for another build in the works.

OOPS! From the angle of the front arms they looked like the ones I sent. Regardless the car is still very nice. Very cool mod adapting the moter plate. Even though you wish less material was removed from the rear suspension mount, I doubt you will have any problems with it.

This is looking cool scr8p...

Any info on that RPM 1.96 ratio case? Never heard of it, I only thought they had the one that is still available(2.6:1?). Is it a different upper gear or ??????

lookin' sweet scr8p!!

[scr8p]

the 1.96 is pretty much the same thing as the 2.65. you still use a standard 2.25 diff and idler gear, but it has more teeth on the topshaft to raise the internal ratio (2.25 to a 1.96), where the 2.65 has less teeth on the topshaft to lower it (2.25 to a 2.65).

also, the 1.96 cases are a light gray, where the 2.65 cases are white.

interesting....that puts it closer to a 6 gear ratio....is that for dirt oval or something? curious why they would lower the ratio, compared to a stealth ratio......

[scr8p]

ya, it was more for the oval crowd back in the day. but now with how much torque the 17.5's have, and the need to go much bigger on the pinion to run them compared to a 27t brushed motor, it'll work fine in offroad. hoopty has one in "stinky pinky" and that car freakin' ripped with a 17.5............

that is the nicest front shock tower EVER on a worlds front. very factory looking

[scr8p]

ya, it turned out pretty nice. but i think the andy's pro graphite tower i used on my '08 nats car looked pretty good on the worlds front end, too.

My 1.96 cases are 2 dark grey ,1 light grey ?????

[scr8p]

i still haven't gotten the parts i need to finish this up. but, i got the body painted today.

anyone with the jan. '91 issue of rcca should see where i got the idea.

[Toasted Coastie]

That paint job must have given you a headache taping. Hell, I can barely get through 3 colors at this point.....
