1/6th Scale Chevy Monster Truck

[NickRummy]

I won't ramble on to much. I wanted something that would put simply, run stuff over. It started out with parts just laying around in the shop so if you see "Junk Yard" as a name anywhere that's why.

Truck Specs

- 1/6th scale Chevy Silverado body from Wallie World
- Modded TXT chassis with extended upper shock mounts (I have ahd some chassis plates design in CAD I've been trying to get machined but they're to big for most people to do)
- Integy Savage shocks de-anodized and running MGT springs 40wt oil
- Junfac rod ends, 10-32 all thread sleeved with 1/2" OD Delrin
- X-factor Axles converted to 17mm hexes (From a Mammoth ST). Rear Axle is locked front axle has 10k oil. Custom Servo mount I designed and had laser cut out of 16ga steel.
- Ofna full offset rims (I want to change out to something nicer)
- Jumbo Kong tires (8.5" OD)
- E-maxx Trans converted to single speed (This is the weak link right now as you can hear in the video)
- Revo drive shafts (took about 4 complete shafts to make them long enough)

Electronic Specs

- MMM V3 ESC with CC BEC
- Hitec 5995 Steering Servo
- (2) 7T Cobalt Puller Motors
- Turnigy 3S 20C 5000mah lipo
- Spekky receiver (3Pk)

I still have a pretty long to-do list for this thing but it sure is a blast to drive. Right now I'm looking into what kind of Maxx trans I can build to hold up to the power this is dishing out. I do plan on gearing down a bit. I don't need all the top end this thing has right now.
