I probaly could have mounted the wing slightly lower but not much.. because then the tires would rub on it when the suspension was compressed.
I installed sway bars on it.. you can see them in the picture of me holding the car.
I'm not sure of the weight of the roller.. Ill get a weight of it rtr though then can subtract the electronics from that number.
Killajb: too late haha I shipped it out today..
Finally I'm finished with this project...well for now..
I spent all yesterday trying to figure out why the center diff wasn't turning the rear diff smoothly. I ended up having to shim it with a spacer plate I made out of a divider you would find in fishing takkle box. I also replaced the rear out put on the center diff with the stock Rc8 outdrive and epoxied a pin in the output shaft of the revo diff. This is much smoother. I just up it will hold up. Last night I stayed up till about 3:30 doing finishing touch type of stuff like counter sinking the chassis, making body mounts,installing sway bars, making a extra battery compartment part, and generally making sure everything was ready for testing. I finished everything up this morning and packed it up and took it to the post office.. Should get to my friend on thursday. I was going to insure it.. but they said if it got lost I would need a receipt to make a claim with usps. Well how the heck do you have a receipt for a custom creation??? Anyway.. took a couple last pictures of it before I sent it out.. The creator with the creation
