My Flux Rebuild and Upgrade

i dont have the 5s yet otherwise id be ripping already. lol. im limited to 4s till the pack comes in the mail. I got a little more done ionight tho in preparation for 5s running. I adjusted the HPI suspension conversion tonight. I think i have it set up alright, a few test runs will tell me better though. I Also added Lunsford titanium turnbuckles up front, as well as add a skid plate. I used a RPM plate, and just slightly modded it to fit. seems to fit real well actually, and its on there tight!

How the hell did you get that RPM plate to fit on there? And what are the screws going into? i'm amazed at how much crap the skid plate keeps out of the chassis. Since running without it once in the mud, i'll never do it again

RPM X skidplates have been used before on a Flux. The skidplate is flexible enough to bend to the shape of the Flux chassis. The RPM X skidplate comes with cross beams that have cutouts on the end that allow them to sit in the cutouts in the TVPs. Then you just screw the plate onto the holes in the crossbeams and that pulls everything up tight.

I was going to use one on my build but decided to make a custom one instead out of 3mm MDF. Was very easy to do.



Rear arm mud guards help a lot too with keeping the truck clean.
