FX's Savage Rebuild

[oregonmud]

I love the Axial engine box. Got one of those myself the other day(not just the box)and just finished break in on it. Cant wait to go open her up some later. Looks good in the grey too.

Someone had a good day. Those TVps are invisable, UNIQUE

Seriously looks great.

 

[Fx]

Just out of curiosity I weighed my rig with everything on, even the heavy stock wheels. It's came out to 11 pounds, not bad for a rig made like a tank.

 

[Fx]

I wanted to snap a few pic before I break it in. As always please do recommend parts to me, so that I can check them out. This is what I still need to get, wheels/tires, axles, CNR brakes, a jeep rubicon body, a nice pipe, I may get CEN piggyback shocks, and other "little" odds and ends. It's never really over. I'll do my best to keep you updated.

Looking good. That center skid looks as strong as those TVPs. A little too much purple for me but I try and stay away from that stuff like its the plague.

might be worth thinking about a throttle/brake linkage mod....i had issues with my standard set up, like the truck not stopping. i can do front flips now!!

 

[Fx]

LEMME SAY SOMETHING ABOUT PURPLE! I don't care for it either and I will be stripping all the purple off some time in the near future. I am not a purple lover either, but for now I just want to break in the engine and worry about the purple later.

Thanks dark I might but my truck does too many endos as it is, I actully need less stopping power.

3 speed. This info I got from Jt and have now. Look on Ebay for a X-SS 2 speed tranny $21 bucks then get the 3 speed gears and do the install. The case for the tranny is real nice.

TSAIS CVD's - Be sure you get the series X version. These are the improved ones.

Heres one: Ebay X SS tranny

Still trying to figure out what else I want so as always if you have an idea post it. Thanks to all the help and support I have gotten so far the truck should look sweet. All that I have received so far is my HCR engine plate. it looks nice and is a tad thicker than stock, enjoy.

 

[Fx]

Alright, I sprung for the OFNA linkage and wow it gives me full throttle. My brakes are shot so throttle is the only thing I can comment on. BTW the OFNA linkages looks better than stock IMO. I took my dremel to the radio box to make a little more room for the new linkage. I also got a 3 speed and a couple other goodies :FarleyParty: oh boy! Still trying to figure out what wheel and tire combo to go with.

PICTURES!

Here one of the truck as it look at the moment.
Waaaay more to come but I can't buy everything at once.

[Fx]

I got a few new things but I have to wait until I get my bearing kit and brakes. The brake hub is an oversized Full Force RC brake hub. I got a 3 speed and the new X gearbox. The other little thing is flanged pipes for the brakes...lol I know but this is all I got for now, it's slowly coming together.

 

[[hs] darkshine]

getting there buddy!

 

[Fx]

I had to clean up and rearrange my PhotoBucket and for some reason it removed all of my pictures so here they are. Forgive me for the lack of updates I have been busy and haven't had time, I will try to update you guys when I get my second brake disks. I have been researching alot on mid tanks and I am seriously considering doing one.
