I will be posting more photos as more gets completed on the truck. I made a chassis with the same length as the Maxx trucks only because it's ultra hard to find the original bodies anymore. It's made from 1/4" plexiglass. The rear steer has been locked out and I am useing fixed T-Maxx turnbuckles for bracing. The front steer will have the Losi XXXS touring car bellcranck steering linkage with a JR High tourque servo. It will all be mounted to the under side of the chassis and use the TC3 aluminium servo mount. The suspention will remain as close to stock as possible. I will be useing Traxxas slide shafts from the Nitro Stampede. A pair of custom assembled 6 cell packs will power a pair of Epic Bianary 19t motors{12 cells in all, photos of the packs will come shortly} They will have adjustable endbells so I can reverse the direction of the forward motor and match the RPM's with my dyno. T-Maxx oil filled shocks will soon adorne the aluminium upper control arms. I am gonna use the stock rims and tires too! When it is all said and done, the skin will be a 2006 Chevy Silverado either custom painted by Don Peters at Speed Desighnz or if I could get my hands on an original decal sheet, it will be white with all the decals from the original version. Should be fun when she's done!!
