In case anyone is curious what is going on, here we go.
Right now I am making a chassis out of 1/8" 6061-T6 aluminum. So far I just have some holes drilled. This chassis will be an electric-only chassis. I have been inspired by starscream to finally make it.
One thing I am thinking of doing (after some research) would be to use a pushrod (Revo) suspension up front, like the Predator X-10. The custom mounts (if I do this) would go onto the custom chassis.
As discussed in another thread, I want to make a slipper-diff. It would be a diff with a built-on slipper clutch (to save gears). I will probably be using a Savage diff because of low cost Ebay parts, but I might end up using a LST diff if the Savage one doesn't work out.


SH Z-Car, Custom Crawler, 8s Savage, 12s XTM XLB 1/7 buggy, 4wd 4-link rear/IFS Pro4 truck, Custom Hyper 10 Short Course, Belt-Drive Mammoth ST 1/8 truggy, 4s 17.5 MM Pro HPI Blitz
