Has anyone tried to mount a VTA body on a TC6? I picked up a used one to run in VTA but the front body posts are way to short to fit the VTA body. Is there something longer that will fit? Im sure I can piece something together, but I just thought Id ask to see if there is something that is an easy bolt on solution for a taller front body post. Its hard to tell how long the posts are looking at pictures n the internet and Im sure someone has already solved this.
Thanks in advance. |
I use the associated bulkhead shims under the body post to raise it up a bit.

Perfect. Thanks Guys. I ordered set of the HPI posts. They looked the longest and I can always cut them down. The AE posts looked to only be 1 hole longer than the stock posts and I wasn't sure that was enough.

TC6.1 Parts
Can anyone help me pls. I want to know the comprehensive list of upgraded parts the tc6.1 has over the tc6 - The petitrc list and the Team Ass. sites don't list the gear diff and outdrives etc. Also did the 3 hole vertical rear diff top brace come out with the tc6.1 or is it a factory aftermarket item?

88mm chassis
Noticed the stock chassis was narrowed to 88mm. 4mm on each side shaved off? To reduce chassis rub? By Narrowing it does the chassis become more flexible? Thanks

narrow chassis is not easy to touch the ground when cornering :smile:

The TC6 does come with a gear diff and solid front axle. The 3hole bearing caps are a new FT part and are not a running change to the kit. As far as chassis go, the 6.1 still uses the original chassis.

Yeah would have more flex. Super narrow chassis seems to be fashionable these days.

Rick, correct. Between riding curbs and a fast sweeper my car was dragging a lot, and sometimes would catch and spin out, the narrower chassis reduced that. It does flex a bit more so i went back to a regular upper deck (instead of one cutout (front and back) as we usually run. I must thank Dawson and FJ for their help (its always nice to hear what my car does wrong) after a few weeks of heavy testing i was very happy with the car:sneaky:
