So, I picked this car up a few weeks ago from Ford and I have been pondering what to do with it since... After talking to Reggie some a few weeks ago, I have decided to turn this into Gold tub runner...

Here is how it came from Ford:



This is where its at right now. At first I was going to use the shocks that came on it, But have decided to put threaded shocks on it with .89's on the front... (Ya I know the screws are in the wrong location) Ryan Maifield also gave me some V2 B4 shocks, in which I may pick up a couple shock towers from JayDub maybe... Here is another pic with different shock towers and the battery cup moved forward...



Its a work in progress... Will try to get a little bit more done today,

Looks good Sean!

That's it, I'm building a light box for photos!!!!!

If you remember, I told you I would just send you one how are you building it, other than the longer shocks?

At the rate I get this done, it might be faster to have you send me that car,

Building it like you told me, B2 cvd, B4 topshaft and V2 slipper, 10t 0 deg rear hubs, T2 3deg toe blocks and B3 wheels (I have 37 full sets, ) Everything else stock... Did I miss anything?

I switched the stock bellcrank for a solid bearing type, plus the b4 wing mount-

I'm leaving the stocker on there... that is how I always ran them BITD. If I have complications I will change it.

I thought I could do it... But I can't... Going to put some ti-turnbuckles on there. The stockers are just ugly.

Ballsy!!!!! I hate the servo saver numbness in the steering (even with zip ties)

Haha... Yup! I already have a worlds one ready to go.

I'm not using the z-wire though... That setup is hurting!

"MARSHALL, can you please push my wing in!?"

LOL!

The shortbus racer that's marshalling your heat us having enough trouble watching his corner anyway........no reason to ask the impossible out of him too.

I am using A&L mounts for the wing, along with a soon to be custom works body post. I was using a SC10 body post, but the truck needed it back.

LOL, I was talking about the z-bend wire that came with the RC10 kits that went from the servo horn to the bell crank.

But since you mention it, I am not afraid to rock the wing wire,

Wing wire is what we used to always run...just have to put a small bend in it. If you keep leaving the cars on the laundry machines they will get swapped with grasshoppers. :p
