Jammin X2-CR ?? (buggy?)
#346
Well I had my first (semi) real race on the x2 this weekend and I absolutely love it! My engine was still being broke in so it was super rich, but the handling was everything I had hoped for! LOVE IT!

Replace your graphite stuff with King Headz. I use to bend front shock towers after just a couple of crashes, I went the entire last season using King Headz front shock tower, not bent in the slightest. The 7075 that Jammin uses is I believe cast, not forged. The King Headz stuff is awesome.

Jack, the term I believe you're looking for is "machined" - not "forged". Forging is something done with a steel alloy. But I think you'd be just fine with the jammin towers - both carbon or alum. They are both ultra tough. I don't know about the x1, but the new ones are solid.

Has anyone used an aftermarket or ? brand rubber dust boot, to cover universal or aluminum drive shaft/cap joint points, where you can lube and keep protected from dirt, etc? I'm Considering this to minimize wear on the new aluminum drive shafts. Any recomendations are greatly appreciated.

I use these,http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...oducts_id/7214 My BCE chassised car uses CVD's. I wouldn't worry about Uni's, but if you are, those should work.

Hey dude - yeah I will do. To be honest, I've installed the PBS but haven't had a race in 3 weeks..our next club day is this Sunday coming up.
There's a few guys running MBX5s, so I might see if they can bring some carriers, just in case!
Where did they (Jammin drivers) say the Jammin carriers were breaking? where the tie rod attached?

Some pics showing CNC towers, lightened uni's and PBS conversion.
Also running custom World's shell for the X1X, modded to suit the X2. It's 1.1 mm thick...so much better!
See how close the rear uni is to the back right side of the crank case...not good..

Thanks for the tips on the CVD boots. Looking forward to getting home and finishing the build on the X2 and getting it on the track. Looks like I'll be triming the case on an OS Engine also, for center drive shaft clearance.
