Boyer Patrick Chassis !

Impressive. A work of art indeed. Almost hate to put anything on it that hides any detail. Just put it under glass as is.

with the body that im going to have on it you will definitely see the detail of the frame and interior

Now I want one. Lol. Looks so good!!

ok here we go ....pot of coffee check lol....

32p on motor in



then i made a bracket for the esc/ radiator


then i added a conical washer between the shocks to space them evenly


made a bracket for the motor ... wanted it to sit as true to the 1;1 as possible and still clear the upper links

Coming together! Love these scale builds!!

had to test out Paul4x4's seat so i cut the floor out and just sat it in there ... have to mount the floor but that will be tomorrow .

thats all for tonight

1:1



scale is close i think if it bugs me i can lower the motor a bit but with the body i think it will be ok

 

[Manfjourde]

Geeze that was fast!

Adding the conical washers really helped the shocks, they were off just a bit and now they look much better. Where's the vid?

 

[DiggerXX]

You should do a build video! Time lapse it from chassis to complete truck. Lol

Thanks guys ...lol on the time lapse Tyler ..you know it would be a looooooonnnngg video being I was figuring out how to get to things ! My new era was a cake walk compared to this ! All the bracing really challenges you to try and figure out how to contort your fingers to get to things and keep it looking clean lol..:emot15:

Yup looking at the pics now I'm going to make a new bracket and drop the motor a bit ...its bugging me :emot15:

Tom, agree but man even as is it's looking soooo good. That seat is just perfect too.

thanks Bill .. new bracket will be made tonight , what threw me off was the real trucks bracing is a slightly different angle of the bars coming together than Johns , so its in the same spot as the 1:1 but being the angle is a touch off i have to adjust .

it was late when i made it :emot100:.... now that ive had sleep its clear as day

 

[KingClod27]

Looking awesome so far Tom!

Where did you get the axle mounts?

John Boyer made them with the chassis

 

[TXT-2.0]

ok new mount made ...now im happy lol...i think its now were its suppose to be






mounted the receiver man this was harder than i thought , had to clean out the bottom of the motor and mounted it inside



fun thing about a tube chassis is the trial and error lol..

 

[nosyajg]

Looks way better now Tom...I didn't wanna mention it earlier, but the placement bugged me too...lol...
