Rusty's Honchablo

[BulletsRain]

Ahh okay. Yea I figured you were going with 2.2's since that's a 1/10th truck right? Looking forward to seeing progress.

I wish my Xtruck could run 1.9s....

[mycrors4]

yep its a 1/10th

u can probably run 1.55's on an x-truck
but u might have a bit of a chassis issue lmao

@DiD
The tundra has a 311.15mm wheelbase (12.25 inches)
The honcho has a 312.42mm wheelbase (12.3 inches)
its pretty much a 1.25mm (.05inch) difference(rounded up) so, it shouldn't be too hard, i can use 1mm spacers for the rear links, and im all good ill be .25mm off, which i really wont care about lmao

[dreamingISdrifting]

2.2 are too big for me lol, dont look scale imo... BTW they have towerhobbies coupons???? I gotta get some...XD Sorry for being so nosey lol I am just that kind of person, I am just so interested in scalers

[mycrors4]

haha np, if u sign up for their newsletter, about every 2 weeks ull either get special deals, or coupons(ie: spend $150 and get $20 off) and im getting 2.2's because im going for the "extreme lifted" look, im sure uve seen a couple on the roads, this super highly lifted pick up with huge tires/rims

[Stampedekid]

I saw on BYT that you were selling the 2.2's. Does that mean you're going to 1.9? When I get mine on thursday, I'll be part of the 1/10 crawler game Personally I prefer the look of 1.55's but that's just what I like, do whatever you like.

[mycrors4]

nope, as said above, ill be getting the 2.2 titus's

@ DiD
it was stampedekid that was also getting one, not a big surprise anymore lol

[dreamingISdrifting]

0.0.....I could have figured it out lol... Is he getting a honcho too? And yea your right I have seen one of these on the road before http://image.minitruckinweb.com/f/mi...fted-truck.jpg !!! When you get yoyur shox tell me how they perform, I have been wanting to get em, but $80 for a set of 4 is kinda on the high side

again $80 isnt THAT much, its like pretty much building up a 1/8th monster truck


its gonna be a "comp scaler" lol
performs really well, and look to scale (well for the most part lol)

[dreamingISdrifting]

WEll I guess it isnt THAT much, I guess it is pretty even with a 1/8 monster shocks too http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXKVU6&P=7, Cant wait to see how it will turn out ^.^, BTW what is your user on RCC??

Yup I am. Just gotta wait till tomorrow when I can go pick it up from the LHS That and my D8's starter box. Mycro, if ya ran 1.9's imo it would look better on it, unless you lift it up a bit like NF93 did on BYT. Although I think he should have left it stock height because he's only running 1.9's. I'll be getting 1.55's for mine like I said, I like the look of a smaller wheel on it

[mycrors4]

well right now im running the stock 60mm shocks
the prolines are 90mm
thats a 30mm lift, so it would be definately lifted

[mycrors4]

BAM
i realized that im actually running 90mm.... **** 99cent store measuring tape had made a typo.. the 9 was a 6.. i threw it away last night
and anyways....

u can tell which one is for the honcho lol

[dreamingISdrifting]

wait, what happened to the Pro-Line Powerstrokes??

[mycrors4]

they've been replaces with 103mm ax10 shocks...
i figured.... 95mm.. thats a 5mm lift.. too small.. with the axial's i get a 13mm lift...

[dreamingISdrifting]

from this http://images.truckinweb.com/tech/su...ifted_ford.jpg to this http://image.minitruckinweb.com/f/mi...fted-truck.jpg, I would have stuck with the PLs tho, I hear they are REALLY smooth.
