the upper arms in the last pic that are placed in the rear of the truck are front revo arms (no str servo back there)

there are no front arms on front of truck

Why not list complete part info on a build thread, isn't that the whole purpose ? helping others.

BTW
Revo Rear uppers Fit Emaxx Front & rear uppers, unless there is some angle I do not see going to buy some verify that.

Heh.

We do like to help other people with their builds when ever possible, but we dont just build our own trucks for use as 'how-to' guides for other users who dont have the skill or initiative to complete their own vehicles.

Posting parts lists and # is a long job and most people dont tend to keep receipts or a log of every single part they've bought- especially if the intention was to build a custom one-off as a personal project.

If you look through the whole thread (yep, all 16 pages), you will see the truck in completed form pretty much- it uses normal maxx suspension essentially, just with the revo arms substituted in place of maxx uppers.

most people do not list part numbers, So certainly not expecting that.
Just a simple part name would do
like (picked up some Losi 8 shocks today)
( the losi 8ight shocks are almost a drop in replacement)
or (I dropped in some revo upper arms and they fit great)

I do agree that detail is nice when eyeballing someones build thread.

I am bad about build threads, I just post pictures of the finished product most of the time.

I leave out the fact that most of my materials are scrounged out of a dustbin... and other choice areas in town... Plus I usually leave out the fact I made 4 of whatever to get the final product correct (or maybe just close).

All in good fun, huh!

Actually the whole purpose of this thread was to show that the lst diffs fit in max bulks with very little work, sorry I wasnt more clear about it but the whole truck was actually a after thought.

No the revo arms do not fit on a t maxx, I modified the bulks to make them fit. You are basically the first person to ask about them, hope I answered your question.

reading this thread reminds me.. I forgot to send of the two MMM back to castle :)

What are those shocks from? Never seen anything quite like it....

BrianG 04.10.2009 01:08 PM

It looks like he just put an adjustment nut as a seperator; you notice there are no threads there? I did the same thing on my MBX5/Corr truck and Slash to reduce bottoming without making normal suspension travel too stiff.

suicideneil 04.10.2009 01:24 PM

Ooooh, dime-bar moment. :lol:

Home made dual-rate shocks, very cool.

SnoopMaxx 04.10.2009 01:40 PM

The red springs are from a Revo

I´m tinkering with that idea my self :lol:

ANGRY-ALIEN 04.10.2009 02:05 PM

I love the use of the extension plates for the longer shocks, real slick man.:yes: I wanted to try something like that to run OFNA rear shocks with my Pro-line arms.

Nice truck dude, I can see a lot of thought went into it.

Yup every one is right, there just revo springs with the retainer slid over the body of ofna shock. works better then I expected :)
