So this is a brief rundown of my Senton that has transformed into a Granite..?

I broke a wheel and tire the other week and decided to do a swap of sorts, I had been storing parts up courtesy of Jenny's. ( as we all do..??? )
Thought I'd post a few pics of bits n' bobs I've done to it to help others out, so here goes...

First couple of pics show my mod to the open hole in the gear case, I used aluminium tape on the inside to keep the debris etc out..

Next I put some sticky backed velcro in the battery tray just using the soft side, also some mesh tubing on the cables to tidy them up a bit..

The next was to the new body, I read on here somewhere that the shock towers can punch through the rear of the body on bad landings, my Senton body has such holes to prove it..!!
So I cut some 0.80mm Lexan sheet and using double sided tape stuck it inside.. The whole body is lined with aluminium tape..

Other mods so far are the HR motor mount, 18T pinion, Badland 2.8's, HR 6mm - 17mm hub extenders with duratrax 12mm hex's, Senton front bumper, I've got some Typhon shocks on their way to me from Jenny's (and I just know the UK customs etc is going to screw me over ?? on those).

I've still got the Senton rear bumper, that will go on with a bit of trimming later once I've broken the wheelie bar...???

Last pic is after its first light bash, and its still in one piece so far..!!

So that's how it sits at the moment...??
