fresh built basher

[moparkid88]

picked the chassis up cheap. little crooked but its ok.. i have to do something with the upper 4 links to make the pinion angles better. my max d body fits pretty good. gonna try and get a wrap for it..

 

[kjr2]

Thats cool looking

 

[moparkid88]

thanks
i want to extend the nose out more but i think itll be weak and break.. we'll see

 

[moparkid88]

changed springs out and dropped the truck some more...

 

[tricked out clod]

It looks better lowered. Fun truck when done.

 

[moparkid88]

ran into a steering problem. chassis is to narrow to put a stock servo mount in and suspension drops too low to the axle to put the axle mount on.. what to do.....

 

[joe]

Let's see a straight on axle shot.
I'm sure there's an axle mount servo bracket that will fit.

 

[moparkid88]

i have the hot racing mount where its centered. i also have some other mount where it puts it to the pass side. shock is in the way tho

 

[monsterjamman24]

If you mount the shock on the axle(c hub) liek mo did on his digger 19 would that get you enough room?

 

[moparkid88]

i dont think so. did a mock up quick.. shock is still being hit by the servo

 

[northerngames]

that a new era chassis?

if I were to fix the the problem I would get link's a few inch's longer and attach the shocks to the lower links using the cpe link mounts but that's me.

 

[moparkid88]

naw, someone made it..

im trying to keep cost down.. i may cut the front end off and make it longer and a little wider to accept the center mount on the axle or keep the stock setup

 

[joe]

If you rotate the link mounts back 90* it would probably clear the servo.

 

[moparkid88]

gonna try that now

 

[moparkid88]

typical me. i over thought it. pinion angle is much better also. gonna match the rear now. thank you!

now.. i bought 87 tooth spur gears and my pinion wont reach it. :mad

 

[joe]

Sweet... you got the servo in; glad to help.
As for pinion/spur, I think I'm running 20/90, but that's from memory.

 

[moparkid88]

Ya i guess stock is 21/90.. i either have to get a spur or pinion. I have a bunch of traxxas pinions but hpi is a finer tooth. My luck haha
