They have the G500 in my LHS, keep looking at it... (hate the body, but maybe I can rat/weather it for a runner?)

Remarkable job on the Landy, @Beetlemankurt

Well done! 🤘

Thanks Berman, I’d like to take the credit for this one but I’m the wrong Beetleman!....we must be breeding! :lol:......you are right though, it’s a beautiful job, well done (new) Beetleman!

Cheers Kurt

p.s. I’m still keeping an eye out for a local truck event to take the Scania for a spin! (Sorry for being off topic).

Anyone know of an after market upgrade for wheel arch liner type things (like CC01 / XV01) but for the CC02?

Woops! 😂

O/T, There may be one in Pahiatua on the 21/22 August (long drive!), and the Waikato guys are trying to organise one soon hopefully. Will keep you in the loop.

Anyone got their mits on the new alloy shock hopups yet and care to do a little review or post a few pics? Part #54991

Quite tempted to order a set. Currently have a set of Carson Big Bores - but other than being cheap they don't have a lot going for them :lol:

 

I've got these now and they look great (though not yet fitted/tested!)

If anyone else is looking for these dampers but can't stomach the £80+ pricing these appear to be going for here in the UK. Amazon UK currently has 1 set left with next day delivery for just under £50.

Thanks, and dang you, I thought I was done with rc spending this month :D

Not seen it mentioned in the thread yet, but there's a few new parts recently announced:

22002 CC-02 Aluminum Servo Mount

22041 CC02 Aluminium Rear Member

I've got the servo mount on the way as I wasn't that happy with the stock one, will post some pics when it arrives.

The issue I didn't like with the kit servo mount is when mounting horizontal (standard) the servo wire is a little squashed, no cut-out provided

The Mercedes GS500 kit languished in my to do list. Nearly done but not there yet. No feel for the GS500 body. Decided to convert to a Unimog.

These are lying around

Red wheels done. Need body posts and shock / body mount parts. Misplaced.

Painted this a while back. Plastic bits misplaced. New body coming so that I can cannibalize the relevant bits

Can anyone share the relevant pages of the CC02 Unimog manual? Trying to figure out how to fit the Unimog body onto the CC02. Thanks.

This link should work I think:

Thanks ! Looks like the Unimog body supplied with the CC02 has different rear mounting holes. :-(

Managed to mount the body after some adjustment. Wheelbase had to be shortened for the Unimog as well.

What is that combination of Unimog Colors?

Body Color(s) = ??

Wheel Color = TS86 Pure Red

Did you order the wheels as a spare part? or did you buy a kit? 

 

Love the Look!

Hi Greanie,

The body was painted with PS54 Cobalt green. I converted the G wagon kit to for the Unimog. Had to rim new body post holes for the rear as this CC01/CR01 Unimog body has different mounting holes for the rear. I had a spare set of black wheels lying around so I painted them TS86. Could not find the red wheels anywhere.

 

Regards,

Joe Ling

I'd like to know too.....  I would only need the front, for when I start my CC-02  Unimog 😉

I’ve seen some on shapeways but they look like they are per side front and back, they also have some translucent front blinkers I’d like but not in a million years am I paying €32 for them!

Back in Perth for the holidays. Nothing to do. Went to the local Hobby Shop & bought a CC02 kit. Blazing hot weather is good for painting.

Any insights to eliminate bump steer ?

 

I saw pics of servo on axle but also saw a pic of someone adding another bar linking the axle to the main chassis but could not make out any details.
