That would make sense. i kinda regret letting that one go. I've often thought of trying to build one of the newer Bullys if they havent been discontinuedIt has to be because you are using a much smaller, hence softer spring to get the droop.

That was a cool looking rig for sureThat would make sense. i kinda regret letting that one go. I've often thought of trying to build one of the newer Bullys if they havent been discontinued
I know the G speed is really popular, I guess I see why. Thanks for the links. I'm gonna go watch the shock one right nowThis is a good video that explains the rigs. They’re a cross between a full on comp rig and scale crawler. There’s quite a few videos on that channel of different builds that run similar setups that are amazing.
Here’s the shock mod that Dixieland rc put together. I just made my own.
The tough part about these rigs is there’s no kit you can just buy to turn your scx10 II or trx4 into one. You need to get the chassis, skid, trans, axles, servo mount, and the links plus everything else and make it all work. G Speed has the kits that provide the most parts (chassis, skid, panhard mount and you provide everything else. Pro crawler in the uk has kits too but they are spendy.
Thanks so much for the kind words. I have not built a 6x6 yet but have a trx6 and some ideas.Holy cow! Now I think this is my favorite build of yours so far. I dunno. The 6x6 was pretty epic. I wanna come play with your trucks, that's all I gotta say man. Nice work!
Oh, I was thinking of Iowa Crawler. I thought I was viewing his thread. My bad. My head is in the clouds right now from all the paint fumes todayThanks so much for the kind words. I have not built a 6x6 yet but have a trx6 and some ideas.
It’s an honor for my build to be confused with the top quality work of @Iowa crawler .Oh, I was thinking of Iowa Crawler. I thought I was viewing his thread. My bad. My head is in the clouds right now from all the paint fumes today
You guys build the baddest crawlers, so it's too easy for my tiny brain to get you guys mixed up.It’s an honor for my build to be confused with the top quality work of @Iowa crawler .
Thanks, definitely G speed products are priced nice. Not at all easy to make specialized hobby products and keep them mostly affordable. I’ve been a machinist for over 30years (mostly cnc these days) and getting a machine shop to do anything in medium to low quantities and turn a profit is no small feat. Looks like 3d printing parts for order (farming to company and have them ship the part to you) is getting popular. Being a machinist I’d rather make the stuff myself but can definitely see a 3d printer coming to my house someday...Thanks for the kind words but really I’m just assembling stuff. It’s people like Gabriel Fleming that are making the products that really work. Everything is just so well engineered and his service is got to be the top of the industry.
GSpeed products really are the good stuff and not that bad on price. The others are good and I don’t want to put them down. I just like my V3 frame the best.
Can’t wait to see how your LCG comes out. The final tuning depends on terrain and driving style.
If you want to know how much a bend takes up I measure the experimental rod before and after I bend it so I knew how much to compensate.I bought a couple sets of cheap links and use the Traxxas revo rod ends. They come in two different lengths so you can fine tune them. Once I get things sorted I might buy good ones..
