  1. Finally got to work on my Sand Rover and followed your instructions on how to bring the wheels in. Only things I did different were: - trimmed the front shock towers so they don't extend past the hood of the body - fabricated an additional shock tower so I could cover up the holes on the hood and use extra DF-03ra shocks I had in my spares box - trimmed the rear screw pins instead of drilling holes in the chassis - used washers instead of spacers and installed the front uprights as far back the A-arms as possible Now to cover that horrible gap between the chassis and body.
  2. Think it can be RCed? Hop-up parts? http://www.tecca.com/news/2011/09/14/model-lamborghini/
  3. Just thought of something, what if you moved the 1.5mm spacer to the front of front A-arm together with the 3mm spacer? This would move the front wheels back an additional 1.5mm (for the SR )
  4. Glad it worked out. You're right as I forgot to mention i had the SR in mind when I suggested using the E3. Again, great work on the mod.
  5. Great tutorial. One thing though, I have a spare pair of DF03ra rear arms (part E3 instead of E2). These would seem to work even better since they would bring the front wheels back about a few mm compared to the E2.
  6. Here's something I started sometime ago and never got around to finishing (yet). It's a TA-02 with a Super Blackfoot shell. I made the FORD lettering on the hood using styrene sheet. The rear door is from a Blackfoot. One of the pics shows the body mount.
  7. There were waves that reached Philippine shores ranging from 40-60cm but no news of damage or anybody getting hurt.
  8. The only ones I know of are the kyosho F1 Mini-Zs.
  9. With the upcoming rerelease of the Rough Rider/Buggy Champ this might seem irrelevant but has anybody by chance tried this on the SB Jr. rims? It's measurements are outside Ø 73 mm, inside Ø 40 mm, width 19mm which is I think are exactly the dimensions of the SB Jr. I like the simplicity of the thread pattern. Thanks. http://www.afv-model.com/4711shop/product_..._Road-tire.html
  10. "Rough Rider" and now "Hump" packs? Is this a bunch of SRB lovers getting together in groups to... Okay, I'm outta here.
  11. Does this mean the spare wheel/tire set will no longer come in the cool boxes? ...unless they remove the "Sand Blaster Jr" from the box art (for the front wheel/tire set)
  12. This should be great being able to "look around" the interior of your Tamiya http://www.gowiththeshark.com

  22. Looking for an SRB FRP chassis plate together with the triangular lower aluminum plate. Doesn't have to be perfect but not too beat up as well. If you have one (or two) please let me know.
