10-Four: The LEGEND Continues...

Post by LTO_Dave »

Well, sort of. :mrgreen:

I was going to make this an on-road build, and still might, but I'll figure something out once I have more parts.

Gomachv was kind enough to cut me some towers that resemble the old Factory Works pieces.

This build might make scr8p's builds look lightning fast, but it'll get done. :mrgreen:

Hey my stuff gets done..... eventually. Especially if I have to use it. I'm sure I'll get at least one build next year to take to CT. :wink:

Interesting towers. Will that rear tower have enough support?

A&L towers were thick, these are 1/8", and its exactly the same as theirs except the one screw hole so it should be fine 8)

Are they made from thicker material used for the normal towers? Or is it just the shape that might be the problem?

Hey, I have a dremel if need be. :mrgreen:

The gap between the out drive and tower is very tight, but I doubt it will hit. If it does, a little shaving should be all that is needed
