  1. A while ago, I decided I wanted to alter the suspension setup on my Jugg2 runner. The leaf spring setup was not flexible enough and didn't have enough travel. I also wanted to eliminate the 4 wheel steering at the same time. So I started off by removing the stock suspension, and adding a txt-1 front axle guard and 4 link mounts. I had to modify the link mounts slightly so that I could get the 4 link geometry right. Fortunately I already had replaced the stock suspension links with aluminium ones, so it was easy to shorten them to the length required. I also had to remove the front chassis cross brace and replace them with aluminium bars, to allow room for the monster servo when the suspension was at full compression. I also made a rear steering lockout that bolted directly to the axle: I took it out and tried it, and having the 4 link with coil overs on the front and leaf spring rear end gave a good middle ground suspension movement. The leaf springs prevented the worst of the torque effects, and the softer, more pliable suspension at the front gave better movement over obstacles. However after a while I decided to go for coil overs all round. As I couldn't find reasonable priced TXT spares on the internet (£28 just to get the 2 grey suspension mounts / axle guard mounts) I made my own from aluminium: I painted them and fitted them to the axle. I designed them to make it easy it lock the rear steering. I can still adjust toe in / out by using different length spacers between the track rod ends and the suspension mounts. I tried this new system out this afternoon, it has a lot more travel now than before and works really well over rough ground, but is now more susceptible to torque effects, so I might add and extra set of shocks to the rear to stiffen it back up again, I guess it will depend on how I plan to run it. If anyone is interested in doing their own (machining or 3D printing), here's the dimensional diagram.
  2. Hi everybody Up for sale is a used Tamiya Juggernaut 1/10 Ford F-350 from 1999. This beauty was the wet dream of 12-year old me but got forgotten over the years, dwelling in the basement of my parent’s house. It has seen its share but is still in a good shape for something that was run by a kid. I still got the original box, all parts that were leftovers after the assembly (including black paint spray), assembly instructions and the receipt. The Kit number is 221541. It comes with two high power servos for the steering and a radio control 2 channel 27 MHz (as a giveaway). Shape (as seen on the pictures): It needs some love that I can’t give anymore due to my other hobbies. Mirrors gone (right) or broken (left) Additional roof light misses two lids Paint spalled on some edges There is a little dent on the front bumper Those minor cosmetic flaws can be easily set aside so that this beauty can shine once more! Tires are perfect – the truck was jacked up the whole time! See apendix for some pictures, ignore the text in there If you are interested, contact me via PM with an offer or to ask questions. Please note, that the shipping starts in Germany (costs for shipping e.g. U.S.A. ~ 80 € as far as I checked). Cheers Burni Jugg.pdf
