Kraton I said I was done for a bit... I lied.

[HoppysRC]

A few weeks ago I made a post showing some light mods I did to my Kraton 6s V5 and said I was going to set this aside and enjoy it and get my infraction done.... Wellllll I didn't do that. I am waiting on my CRCU center brace, front axles and a few other odds and ends ( Including cable management don't judge me) I finish it up this weekend. but here is my one month old Kraton . when I tell you this thing has ZERO slop. I mean zero

After this I really am going to start working on my infraction. Will be doing motor and esc and some other things. Will make another thread for that.

Scorched Titanium chassis
Scorched bulkheads
Scorched Akerman plate
Scorched steering assembly bearings
Scorched Front, Rear, and upper pin holders

have even bought the Kraton last month at this point. I should have just bought all this and a few things from Jenny's... Didn't plan on going this hard with this build. Will post final pics when done this week.

Think the next step is to get your own milling machine. Just image the possibilites on the Infraction.

Well I'd say next step is drive line full titanium upgraded cups the works

Fantastic build. Holy crap you went hard!

Beauty build! Nice work, man. The combo of those M2C and Scorched parts is killer.

Beautiful man!
What you gonna do with the whole kraton you got in parts now?

I have some hardened steel on the way. I like that material better for high wear areas also doing scorched rear hubs as the HR ones I bought don’t fit. But they do fit my typhon so they at least have a home!

Thanks all for the kind words. The validation of you guys makes me looking at my transactions this last month a little less painful

It's amazing. Does adding all those parts make it a lot more durable?

Really? wow. I almost ordered the HR hubs for my V5. Ended up going ADU and they went on perfectly.

Just rebuild it I guess I’m not sure, I have other members of the 6s line could use spares. But I also plan on upgrading all of the to the same level so who knows… Stare at the box and feel guilt I need these motors/Escs to start burning up so I can get going on that lol.

I had to use spacers with my treal ones

Yeah the hot racing advertised as v5 are like 8 mm to short the driveline just hangs out and wobbles. Which is fine the only reason I didn’t get scorched originally was their steering knuckles have an open end design and I didn’t know how I felt about that for off-road purposes. These not fitting just gives me an excuse to go back and but the titanium ones lol
