A few things arrived in the post today... A little update...
Titanium turn buckles
Metal tie rod ends
Brake Linkage kit
Traxxas carbon wing
Hotbodies wing mount



After looking at how the wing and mount would fit, i was suddenly very worried about how much of my fibre glass body i was going to need to cut. I dont want to ruin my Rear GCM decal *

So it got me thinking and i may use the wing mount and a second wing on my Basher Desert rat body (which is being painted at the moment... pics will be up end of the week) But for the time being i was thinking of directly mounting my Carbon wing to the Fibre glass body???? It may not take the biggest pounding but this is just my road body anyway....





What do you think??? I didnt realise how much of the body i was going to have to alter... and i REALLY dont want to do that.


Also i finally decided on mounting both steering and brake servo on the inside of the chassis. I will use a shorter alu servo horn for the steering so it doesnt come into contact with the motor, and i will use my long alu servo horn for the brake which gives enough clearence to mount my brake linkages perfectly...



As you can see in the pic below... The alu servo horn is located perfectly just outside the tvps for the brake linkage.



Ill try and get the brake linkage mounted today....
