Another Newb Tube

Hey Jesse I know it's not exactly local, but wanted to let you know that Remote Control Hobbies in Covington is starting to carry crawler stuff, and they do carry rc4wd products at good prices.
 
Really? thats awsome. I think we need to talk 4 seasons into carry'n it. I know he would if people would start buying it.

Crash, you think the axles will break that fast huh? well I guess ill just order the other ones when they do. Must be a jeep thing, and I never understood, always breaking. LOL
 
:stirpot: Ok so I still need my clod 12mm hex's but i did get my 12 to 17mm adaptors and wideners today from RC4x4 and the damn barrel nuts are too short to bolt the wheel to it. :mad: I cant win it seems. I did manage to get it to sit with them just sitting on the axles not bolted on so I could upload some pics. It sits a lot wider now. doesnt look scale anymore but at least i can turn withought hitting links. Hopefully the crew at RC4x4.com will hook me up with the proper hardware next week so I can roll this bad boy.

Its all back at Brians house again for the finalizing of the shock mounts and 4 link mounts then the chassi should be finally finished and Its up to me to get her rolling. I just might make it to that comp after all.:clappy:

...assuming mike at RC4wD sends me the right barrel nuts for my wideners.
 
Well Jason finished puting the mounts together and this is what she looks like right now. Looks top heavy but I knew it would be so ill mess around with the setup till I get somthing I want. untill then here are some pics of what he's got.
