  1. Thanks bsft24. I'll go and have a measure straight away. See how much cosmetic surgery is needed LOL
  2. Thanks bfst24 I'm interested to know how big your Willy is I've just seen the new Wild Wendy aswell . Not sure I can run to the asking price though. Shame I think she'd look superb sat upon my Willybuster
  3. Thanks for the replies folks As far as stretching a willy onto my clod Well I was thinking more along the lines of shrinking my Clod to fit a Willy. The chassis on my Clod is a bit worse for wear but fixable. So I thought with a chop here and chop there I could get a willy shell to fit. Can someone tell me what the dimensions are for a Willy 2 shell please. And if I think I can make it work I may have a re,re Grasshopper for trade for a complete Willy 2 shell if anyones interested
  4. Hello folks, I've recently got back into rc cars with the purchase of a re,re Grasshopper. And I've been bitten bad by the bug again. So I dug out my old Mardave Meteor and retored that. And i also dug my old Clodbuster out of my parents loft where it was put after a friend drove it under a car and smashed the chassis I've had this thought that I would like to put a Wild Willy 2 shell on the Clod . Is this possible?????? I don't mind modifying the chassis as like I said its been busted anyway. I hope someone can help
  5. Yeah I want the 915's for the back and the jr's for the front. Does anyone know where I can get the tyres and wheels from?
  6. Hello folks, I was wondering if it's possible to fit sandblaster tyres to my Grasshopper? If not what do I have to do to fit them? And where can I get some?
  7. Hello all, Has anyone got a Mardave meteor they'd like to sell Had on years ago and really fancy getting another one.
  8. Thanks Max sounds like some good info . One other question, What other mods did you make to your friends Grasshopper to allow it to run a 15 turn motor. I would like to upgrade to something along those lines in the future. My main concern is the gearbox. Thanks Ian
  9. So folks how do I stop my Grasshopper from rolling. I fitted a new 540 sport tuned motor to my nice shiny new grasshopper last night. Took it to work today to try it out in the carpark. Using it for about a minute and it's sliding along on its roof . This happened another two times . I heard they like to do this so I wasn't to suprised. But what can I do to stop it? If there is anything I can do?? Great fun witht 540 though. Especialy when one of the guys I work with had it literely smoking its tyres
  10. Hello all. I finished building up my Grasshopper last night and have already decided that I would like to put some better shocks on it (front and rear). Can anyone tell me what type are good and where I can get some??
  11. Thanks for the info guys. I can now go and get what I need to get up and running. I've got a ball race kit coming had to be the first thing I did. Thanks again.
  12. Hello all. Go easy on me its been some time. I've just bought myself a nice new Grasshopper and I need some advice on parts. First things first, What battery should I get bearing in mind I want to fit a hop up motor. Do I go for 3000 Mah or 4000 mah? or something completely different? Next up what motor? Should I go for a standard Tamiya 540 sport tuned motor or should I go for something a bit fruitier (I am working to a budget so no 200 quid brushless set ups. Sorry) Last thing I promise. I'm going to be using my old Futaba attack r and I wanted to know what esc could I use with that set up?. That is all. Sorry for all the questions but like I said its been a very long time since I had an rc car and things have changed some what.
