They are cheap, and secure the battery well. It also helps support a soft case battery on the bottom as we all know the bottom of the chassis is not flat.

I also made a rear body mount using the other trans top hole and some threaded rod (cut head off a bolt). I then threaded in a body mount from a 1/10th Losi Late Model. My car is in my trunk or I would take a photo.......

that body post is a good idea

back from the track...not too bad. i had to re-learn how to drive though. also have a lot of tuning to do, lol. i could not find and tire that would give good sidways traction. only time will tell if i will keep it. any setup tips?

for better on power steering i run 1 gold washer on the rear hub carrier and 2 of those washers on the front inner camber link location. ya know that spacer thats on the inside of the spindle carrier thats on the screw that screws into the axle? i run that spacer on the outide of the spindle carrier. that helps with steering too.

Cracked my buggy T plate on the end of the triple. :(

Truck handled very well, especially with NO setup other than the stock Speed-T settings, and 30w all around. I was traction rolling alot.

Did it just crack in half?

Pretty much. I would have guessed it should have cracked at my mounting points, but it was a Z across the center of the Pivot plate. Just a bad hard landing.

mopar1994 what did you use to make your standups for the 4 gear tranny? I am reworking my mid motor rc10gt putting a 4 gear in it and would like to make more mounts at different heights for adjustments.

i made those posts from some delrin rod i had laying around. i used to use the delrin rod for links on my losi mini rockcrawler

whats a really good, fast brushless motor that i could get? i just saw some team ptityo motors and they look like they perform really good. does team ptityo just modify one of your motors or can you just buy a motor from them?

i never heard of them.

but delrin rod is what i used to make my braces. i have it and delrin sheet laying all over my work space, lol. great stuff.

anybody have anymore updates? i will be trying to test some more this week.

I still need to swap out the plate when I cracked it, just siting on a shelf in my office currently :rolleyes::lol:

i got the rear bulk head on.

Is your motor going to clear with that much material left on the chassis?

yes the motor will clear. the chassis was like that with the old transmission in it and the motor cleared
