anyone have a G4 race e-maxx chassis??
 
I'v got a 4x12ft 3.2mm sheet of 7075 t6 that I have to use up...:oops:

so, does anyone have some pics of the chassis by itself?
any measurements would help too
if your feeling really nice, I do have autocad, and access to a CNC mill...

Copyright infringement- you'd need to alter the design 15% to avoid it.

The length is the same as the stock item though, so if you have the the truck to measure (or ask a fellow member with a ruler), it would be easy to replicate. Only issue is you'd need to buy the GorillaMaxx upper plates and posts to mate them to the chassis plate; next best option is to make something along the lines of the FLM chassis perhaps...

its only infringement if I sell it, and besideds, its a diffrent alloy, difrent thickness, and I'll probably make a few more changes as I go...

I have acces to a full metal shop, CNC equipment, etc...
I was thinking of buying the posts anyway, or mabey the lunsford ones...

I dont think you can bend 7075 t6 billet its too hard (brittle). If you try I think it will crack. but I am no expert. I think a titanium version would be the hot ticket.
