Jammin SCRT10 - Page 2 - RC-Monster Forums

[QUOTE=gixxer;352471]Well here is the final result. Should be trying it out at the track for the first time this week. So far I just put thicker oil in it 50wt and moved the shocks out on tower. Added a mmp, airtronics 94758 servo, novak 6.5hv and some new tires and wheels.

Gixxer, looking good. What wheels/tires are those?

gixxer · 02.28.2010, 09:40 AM

those are proline split six wheels with bowties. I like the yellow. http://www.prolineracing.com/product...ls-435-33.html

No just wonder what's the benefit as I am going to use 14mm shocks from x1 jammin cars.

The benefit is more travel. You want to increase the travel (in front) but you don't want to raise the ride height, so you need to increase the up-travel. The stock Jammin SCRT10 front shocks are really short and don't have enough travel. If you use the rear shocks in front (or any longer shock) you can gain some up travel. To use longer shocks you need the extended shock tower. Just don't get carried away with the front up travel as too much and your CVD's will bind under full compression. Use the SNR tower and stock Jammin rear shocks and you won't have any issues.

Check this thread, Post #2022 the guy your looking for is "SNRSCION" send him a pm for more info. He has front and rear extended towers in Carbon fiber, 3mm or 4mm thickness.

Got it, pm him already thx

Can a neu 1512/2.5d motor fit in my scrt10?

Nice SCRT10, I think I read your thread in the RSC forums half a dozen times.
I definately will use that idea with the skateboard glide tape for my truck.
Reminds me that I still have to order it...

JoFreak, thanks for the kind words. It's a little extra effort to take pictures and post up the info, but I learned a lot on these threads so I want to return the favor. How's your SCRT10 running?

Shark,

How does the one with the 1/8 shocks handle next to the one with the stock shocks? I was thinking about going with the 1/8 shocks on mine so Id really like tou hear what you think.

Jhautz, the 1/8 shocks feel great. It's an incremental thing, the stock Jammin shocks work fine, going to the Jammin rears all the way around was a little better and going 1/8 was better yet. Not a huge difference, but to me it's worth it. I am not an elite driver and make mistakes so I need all the help I can get. The point of going biggger is that you can lower the ride height (especially critical if you go with bigger Slash size wheels) and gain back the suspension travel by increasing the up travel slightly. Going to the 1/8's adds the following, more oil volume for consistancy and stronger (shafts).

I'm thinking about 1/8th shocks my self, but more in a way of ofna 1/8th front buggy shocks. Basically the ones I use on my g-maxx but shorter (~100mm).

Other than that, got my first delivery today: colours, masking tape, ball bearings for the steering and a few other parts.
With any luck you guys have a chance to see a screwed up paintjob on a SCRT10 shell next weekend
