How is that smiley chassis working so far?

the rigs look good, I just about built a Maxx based rig but I purchased the "Ron crawler" instead. I couldn't beat the price @ $600 for a Boyer.

Yeah I keep looking at that ram tuber he has but I'm having Casey at Twisted Toys build me a nitro savage. The rig works good I just need to spend sometime tuning the shocks. Also need to make a new motor plate so I can lower my cog since it is kind of high atm. Might end up put my other links in the rear to make it 16"wb if I can't adjust it right. If all else fails I will go back to my SW2 maxx with a 16" wb. Waiting on my new super rooster to get here from that super sale lol.

I really like the SW2, probably the best one out there.

ManiacMagoo · Apr 2, 2006

Yeah it is pretty nice with its bling. I think right now it is a toss up between the Jefferson, RBX, and SW2 besides the Oregon guys top secret chassis's. When I bought my Jefferson the instructions told you what you needed to set it up which maybe was $20 in parts for shocks links and such but it was supper easy and crawled great from the get go. I haven't ran a 2.2 SW2 yet because my skid is 3" wide on mine. I was going to build 3 SW2 2.2's for my wife and kids but the way I keep breaking axle housings I decided to just start building them maxx axled rigs for the strength.

I am working on a fix for the TLT axle housing breakage problem. You won't loose any clearance and it will be stupid easy to install. If it works out there will be a wright up.

ManiacMagoo · Apr 2, 2006

Hope so I usually break atleast one housing everytime I go out.

gee, I wonder what it is going to look like. :flipoff:

ManiacMagoo · Apr 2, 2006

Saves you the time but I want to see it pink!!!!

ManiacMagoo · Apr 3, 2006

Can you spot the new change to this thing:

Dude · Apr 3, 2006

you flipped the tranny.

ManiacMagoo · Apr 3, 2006

WRONG :flipoff: . I built new motor plates off the front to spin the motor around and put it less than 2mm off the revo shaft. One of the spacers is less then 2mm from the spur gear but it works :redneck: . I'm waiting for my new super rooster to get here so I can see if I'm going to use my GD600 or not. If I do it will stick the motor perfectly centered in between the front links and allow me to drop the tranny alittle more. It is a very tight fit inside that pig. I tried everything I could to keep from hacking the chassis.
