Crapolio!! My Chassis is cracking!!
EEEEK!! My Pro2 Chassis looks like its about to die on me!! what can I do?? Will HPI still take 1st GEN lower decks and replace em no cost??
|
i wouldn't think so but it's worth a try. depends on how you broke it and how old it is
|
How is it dying? cracked? worn away? If it is basically all there, theres quite a few things you can do with epoxy glue to breath some life back to it!
|
Its cracking at the screw holes. And its cracking from from general use.
|
Is there anything beyond epoxy that we can use to fix up cracked chassis?
I have a Yokomo YR4 M2 Type J chassis, and there's no aftermarket support for the chassis anymore. If that cracks... oooooh boy. |

That's only IF you can get a lower deck.
Without replacements, I think I'll have to use the ash and CA method. |
I already replaced it Jon.

You can substitute Baking Soda for the ash and you get a thick hard CA epoxy. Works great.
