really hope tekno release a thicker body, the stock ones are so flimsy.
in the meantime, i had this old proline 0.60 lexan body laying unused, so a quick paint job and some extra holes to make it fit and its ready to race http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...ps42773a53.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...ps64e1b5d7.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7ab9c649.jpg |
nice body dude!

hello everyone
I am about to pull the trigger on a et48 I just wanted to know what other body have you try on the truggy which one fits good |
Ok guys, currently in the build process and I am experiencing some difficulties. (First time build).
Basically its a very smooth build but the front and rear camber links are turning out to be a nightmare to screw together. I dont really have the proper tools to do so, which is why they start feeling VERY VERY tight and I cant screw them in enough to get the right lenghts. What tools do people use to assemble the front rear camber links? ALSO, is there any technique/tip/tricks involved when assembling the camber links? ANY sort of advice would help as simply trying to muscle then in isnt working for me AT ALL. Also I understand that the camber ends are threaded as we screw the links in. Is that how its supposed to go down? Or am i supposed to thread them with something else before screwing the links in? I had no need to do so up till now in the process (as every plastic is freshly threaded when I insert screws), but maybe I should now? ANYWAY, HELP PLEASE! SOS CALL! Eagerly waiting for replies! Thanks in advance. |
put a drop of oil on the threads. simple tools....crescent wrench to hold rod and twist on the ends with your hands.
|
I get a body reamer and ream out the rodends so the turnbuckles are easier to start,I put black grease in the rodend before I run the turnbuckles in.
|
I like to chuck the turnbuckle into a drill and pre-thread all of my rod ends. Make sure to do the reverse threads on half of them and keep them separated so not to mix them up.
