Cleaned up and changed diff oil in my Tekno & started on Senton3s. Replaced most of the bearings too.

Checked out the Slash....looked good. Ran well (in house) and steering was smooth. I just tightened up screws and gave it a once-over.

5 more to go then the Ryft kit! 🤪 ✌️

When I first opened this thing up, I thought it was going to be flimsy. I thought I'd never be able to jump Big Chungus off this ramp. But as soon as I got it assembled, it really shaped up to be a solid ramp! And it's fairly light, even though this is the biggest one they make. Very very pleased with this purchase, and I can't wait to try it out!

I finally finished converting my Oktay bumper into a TBone wheelie bar. I love the TBone wheelie bars, but I hate that they are no longer in business. I did have to cut and modify Oktay, but it was a bit wide on the ends.

I have the support that holds the 6S wheelie bar and the bar to attach to the rear lower suspension. I do not have the upper support that connects the bar to the wheelie bar, but from some pictures I have seen, it was not on the first TBone wheelie bar.

Regards, I will give it a try and come back to the bench to keep trying.

So is this made out of polyvinyl poster board and metal frame?
 
I don't know why I do this to myself.

I have way more hours into this rig than I care to admit. It's almost done though.

This servo mount won't work because 1, it's inbetween a standard and micro size, and 2, somebody fit a massive castle motor in there, and it won't fit anymore.

So I had to work on a solution, and here it is.

That's where everything just went off the rails. By the time I fit everything to make this thing chooch, she's pretty packed up.

Now the only thing left to do is solder on a connector, and set everything up in castle link and the radio. Man, this thing is gonna scream.
 
I'm going to go ahead and call the TT02 drivetrain a success even though the front bracket failed. Ordered a aluminum bracket to replace the plastic, which melted and popped off. The biggest issue was the rear assembly, and now it's as smooth as butter! Still trying to figure out where that piece of metal came from. It's not a gear tooth of any part of the drivetrain as it's all intact..
