KAMIKAZIE 4.0 berg build
 

Im thinking of getting a BERG crawler & a KK customs 4.0 chassis. Can i use the stock rod ends & stock upper links on the KK customs 4.0 chassis or do i have to get the revo ends ?.The KK customs 4.0 chassis comes with bent lower links, so the stock ones are not needed .

You should be able to use stock rod ends and your stock uppers w/ that chassis. The upper's may or may not be the length you need though.

The KK lowers will needs rod end's installed unless you can talk Jeff into doing that. Well worth it.

I used some oversized HPI rod ends and didnt really like them. The Revo "pushrod" ends that go to the rockers would probably work best though.

Are you considering the high or medium clearance delrin lowers?

thinking of the same but with a dna mantis chassis if i can sell the .5 or an e losi 8

Jeff suggested i might like the HC links , since i wont be competing . Are the revo rod ends the same size as the stock rod ends ?.

Update
 

I just orderd my berg parts & my KAMIKAZE CUSTOMS 4.0 chassis . My buddy will be geeting the few traxxas parts i need . I still have to decide on what wheels & tires i want to use . I leaning towars mayhem engineering 7's with HB rover's . Any suggestions on wheels and tires ?.

post up the full shopping list... so you didn't go for the full berg kit just the axles...

which lockouts did you choose

I still have some stuff to get but i got the following stuff . No lockouts at this time because i dont know which ones to get . I still have to decide what tires & wheeels. Im thinking mayhem engineering 7's or comp double fatty's ( with removable weights) or vanquish revolver wheels (with removable weights). As for the tires im thinking panther with the soft foam or the HB revolvers. I will be getting the new proline bug 1/0 crawler when it is released in a couple of weeks . What do you think about these lockouts ?.

I run fubar lockouts on my Hot axles. I'd definatly go the JP route if I had berg's. Nothing against fubar. They are great and do what they are suppose to. I really prefer the look of the JP lockouts.

I got a Fubar crawler stand from John too.

I orders this morning so im hoping today . Joe bruiser on rctech sugessted the panthers with the soft white foam & not the memory foam. Ha also sugessted the fubar lock over the jpcustoms . He said there is less chance of snagging . The 4.0 looks great .

Snag = Competition :whistle:


JoeBruiser definately know's wazzup. :yes:

I just got the part # for the panther tires for my friend to order . Im going to his shop tommorow to pick up the revo push rods & rod ends . Im thinking of holding out for the new proline bug body thats coming out . but that body in the second pic looks okay . what model is that ?.

UPDATE.

I just picked up all my traxxas parts for my crawler & ordered the panther tires with soft foam .

Update
 

I just ordered my MAYHEM 7's with machined colored rim & black five point star rings . I cant wait till they get here .:smile:

That is a JConcepts body.

No my wheels have not shown up yet . what model jconcepts body is it ?.
