Tyres look good man. I havent done yhe cable tie mod... yet, looking to copy speedy and use some sort of threaded bar
-
Thanks waterbok, got any pictures?
-
Taking shape, thinking camel yellow or ps-3 blue. Anyone know of some decent tyres that are maximum 120mm outside diameter? Big horns too big, 1.9's look hilarious, Tamiya vice crawlers the right size but I know are poor performance wise

hi, thanks for the reply. Shaft, cross joint and grub screw in the image above -
I installed the carbon steel prop shafts to my CR-01 thinking it'd be the most reliable option. Well, one of them is fine but the other lasted 45 minutes before it lost one of its cross joints. Does anyone know if cross joint assembly part number 53500 is compatible? I didn't want to fork out another £30 for a full complete shaft when there's nothing wrong with it.

My all aluminium chassis is coming along nicely too. Tamiya aluminium dampers being made: And I made a pretty sweet looking axle guard from aluminium plate. I copied a picture of one I found online and it worked out pretty good:
-
the standard rock socker chassis is complete. I've put a few upgrades parts on including Tamiya aluminium base plate, aluminium dampers, some alloy parts around the axles and steel driveshafts. Rock socker body to follow

Taking ages but looked sweet!

And so the build begins at last. My son got a rock socker for xmas so building both at the same time.

You guessed it, more hop ups from Japan, again - less than half the price compared to U.K. The frustrating thing is I ordered the bearings last like a complete numpty so starting the building of the rig is going to be delayed as I literally can't start without them......
