Kraton tsutton's Build Log - Arrma 1/8 Kraton 4WD EXB Extreme

Finally managed to find the time to put the glue down yesterday. It's now all dired up and the body is now more flexible.

First time of doing this so this may look a bit of a mess but the end result is a stronger body and I'm happy. ?

Looks good to me, the body will look worse if it's cracked and broken. Nice job.

Yup, while it might be a crap job of doing the work, it's more stronger than before.

Nice build, i got my EXB last November which had the original rear diff set up but that's all shimmed and rock solid now. I put the max6 combo in and its a beast.
I like the idea of the taller side guards to help keep the dirt out ive just orderd some, keep bashing

DON'T BASH IT. SEND IT!

These arrived today, which means I can now change the pinion size in the future, just need to decide on which one without overheating the motor too much!

And this rear, side guards - should stop the dirt from entering. (one off Custom job from someone) - will take better photo once I have this fitted.

Just seen your (I'm assuming) site through fb, hope it works out well for you, a good breaker is always handy, I'll be getting some bits for sure, breaking a mojave anytime soon?

 

[tsutton]

Thank you, yes will be having Mojave in soon, waiting for Big Rock to come first.

Been a year since I last updated this!!

In that time...

* Broken wing mount - new one fitted
* Broken wing - tie cabled for now!
* Diffs greased - need to take them apart soon for full servicing

Apart from these issue, it has been going well so far, even crashed a few times, rolled & cartwheeled billions of time, the whole thing still held up well. I am very impressed with my Kraton EXB!!
