gozone 30 Posted October 4, 2013 Hi all.. Does anyone know if it is possible to shorten the wheelbase of either DF-03 RA, TA-02 or TT-01 so I can fit the Lancia 037 hardbody onto the chassis?.. Would prefer if it was possible without any cutting, but simply by swapping arms aroud, so if anyone has tried this, please let me know. Thanks in advance.

lawdog 23 Posted October 4, 2013 I found this "chart" on another forum, but I can't vouch for its accuracy: TA-02 chassis + TA-01 arms Wheelbase =234mmTA-02 chassis + flipped TA-01 arms Wheelbase =250mmTA-02 chassis + TA-02 arms Wheelbase =257mmTA-01 chassis + TA-01 arms Wheelbase =257mmTA-01 chassis + flipped TA-01 arms Wheelbase =273mmTA-01 chassis + TA-02 arms Wheelbase =280mm Looks like the first combo would get you closest to the Lancia wheelbase from the TA-03, which I think was 237mm. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gozone 30 Posted October 4, 2013 Thanks a lot, Guys.. Loads of great info there. I have a box full of old TA-01 and 02 stuff, and a couple of complete chassis, so I guess it´s just a question of getting started mix-matching some bits and pieces. Cheers..

kontemax 1725 Posted October 5, 2013 I think TA02 + TA01 rear arms is the right choice imho. Max Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
