Yeah with work the way it is and being married and still trying to work on mustangs all the time I find I just honestly don't have the time to mess with r/c's like I used to. I do really enjoy building them but they just sit and I would rather someone that appreciates them to own them. I just...
This truck is currently FOR SALE.
If anyone is interested let me know. It's had 6 tanks ran through it since I completed the build and it just sits here so I figured I would sell it.
Thanks everyone.
Once I get my black maximizer wheels on the savage then it will match my F-150 even more.
Here's the wheels on my real truck:
I'm thinking of either Maximizer/Badlands combo or Maximizer/Losi Zombiemaxx combo.
I finally got my new shell painted and mounted. It's a Proline F-650 body. I figured it was only right because of my daily driver 06 F-150. Here are the two of them today.... :-)
They seem to be bonding great.....lol
Thanks everyone. I will get some better vid footage as soon as this weather breaks. More wintery mix here now.... :(
Thankfully my neighbors have only complained about the sound once. And that was when a buddy was over here running his Baja 5B SS. That thing is craaaaaazy loud....lol.
Well I finally got to run my just finished Ext FLM Savage X today. So far what little I have driven it I really like it. The truck is a lot more stable and handles a ton better. It jumps better as well.
Mods to truck:
FLM Ext Lcg TVP'S
FLM Motor Plate
Losi LST Shocks
1600mah NiMH...
Yes this works great on a Savage X. All you need are a set of Lst style shocks from any of the lst platforms(lst, lst2, raminator, aftershock, mega baja) the upper shock mounts for the lst shocks, and longer mounting bolts for both upper and lower mounts on your savage. It is preferred to use...
Thanks for compliments guys.
Unfortunately I haven't ran it yet. I never thought to order a xl rotostart wand until I went to start it and the wand was too short...lol.
Sooo...I guess I'll snag one off of ebay and wait another week before I get to run it.... :(
I forgot to add that I took the stock hpi motor plate braces and put them at the bottom of the chassis to give it a little more strength and protection until my center skidplate gets here.
Also if one wanted to save a few bucks you could install the stock engine mount braces like I did...
Freddy: We had the right size button heads at our shop so I grabbed those today. I still have those to put on. Will probably do that later today.
On another note. I came home from work today and had some stuff in the mailbox... :)
I started on the Integy hub carriers first...
