Hey Guys I have a Video http://youtu.be/xadyvv4wwW4 up on my Youtube channel of a basher test I conducting. Check it out if your bored and give me suggestions on what you would like to see.
Can anyone suggest a decent cheap basher truck. I bought a second hand Tamiya Wild Dagger a short time ago for this purpose, I was hoping with twin motors it would tick along a bit but unfortunately not, it's a bit pants actually :roll: . I would...
I am not sure why but I was compelled to get an rc10t2. I managed to be offered one at a darn reasonable price so I picked it up.
I spent the afternoon fitting it up.
So far I have 12mm front hexes on the b4 25degree caster blocks and some t5m big...

Here is the finished project, burnt shocks and all. On the shocks, the chemical bath that tried to eat them did manage to eat away the groove at the bottom of the body the snap ring sits in. I took some heat shrink tubing and a pinion gear and...
OK, long time no post. I've been very busy with crawlers but also worked on several vintage projects in parallel which means a lot of time passes without any actual project ending! Finally finished this one though.
Got this Ultima II for $20 off...

Yes, up front I used Triumph wheels. I had to use Triumph front axles as well since the wheels are narrower at the bearings.
