    Did some measuring to look into alternate links, most say to use Everest 10 lower ones. Stock are 135mm lowers and 110mm uppers, front and rear are the same. Found out that Axial SCX10 II links are close, with the rear and front sets different lengths. Lowers are 130mm front and 138mm rear...

    Building up a track in the backyard. They get run most every day. Got that right. After working on SCX24s the fasteners seem huge... and all the room!

    Danchee Ridgerock mods

    Did the cheep mods on the new (used) Ridgerock. Tummy tuck. Pen spring mod on shocks with shock keys. 12mm wheel hex extenders. relocated ESC to upper front of battery tray. Yellow body mounted up (it hinges from the rear). All that's left is extending the motor/servo wires and fabbing up some...

    Found a 💲bonus! Eight nickels taped on the front servo and four on the rear. 60 cent discount. I think I'll use the yellow buggy body on this one.

    Danchee Ridgerock mods

    First time buying a used RC- got another Ridgerock minus body and battery from FB marketplace for $40. Everything works, good shape with normal wear. Best thing is the guy is a crawler fan! Now I have someone to go crawl with. Anybody else in the St. Pete area chime in- looking for other RC fans...

    Thanks! Lots of good ideas there. As far as overdrive, supposedly the front and rear motors have different part numbers, maybe that's what's happening. I may fab up some links, lots of vids on how to do this. A good skill to know. After I did the tummy tuck there are some areas that hang up so...

    Nice to know. I figured the wimpy axles wouldn't play nice with more power. Maybe with the Ridgerunner just released we'll get some beefier driveline parts.

    Danchee Ridgerock mods

    I'm using the stock rims and aluminium extenders so the wheels are about as light as they can be. I'm really hoping that some metal hubs will be available someday. Do any of the Everest series fit? They are available in metal. I see you've replaced the steering links. Traxxas? Also, are those...

    Danchee Ridgerock mods

    Motors are 380 size, some say that a 390 will fit. Equivalent brushless sizes are 380=2838 and 390=2845. Motor shafts are 2.3mm and use an 8 tooth pinion (not sure of the pitch). Lots of people are using Dynamite Tazer 37T 380 cans but the stock ESC may not like the increased current draw...

    Danchee Ridgerock mods

    I got the creepy crawly bug when I started on my AX24 build, but waiting on parts is really frustrating:mad: Axial AX24 build So in the meantime my LHS had a good price on the Danchee Ridgerock. After watching some tube stuff it seems this rig punches way above its weight. OOB it was a floppy...
