Maxx 3.3 Steering Blocks

[Gustav]

I'm using 3.3 parts on my g-maxx,3.3 knuckles,arms,bulks,towers and sliders.I'm using 1/8 diffs in ultralite cases,7075 cups and centre MIPs though.

I made diff outdrive shafts for the sliders,the distance between the drive pin holes is accurate to get the grub to line up with the slot in the bulk to get a driver in (see pics).Then the slider is shimmed against the bearing race which also prevents the bevel gear mesh from tightening(the shaft can't push in)

I bought UE 2.5 Ti turnbuckles without thinking they might be too short,the solution was to use LST rod ends and shock pivot balls,they're the perfect length and nice and beefy.The picture is with a fair few degrees of rear toe in.

Had to remove a little from the knuckles and rod ends for clearance and make spacers to set the bump steer geometry.They turned out great,work perfectly.

My chassis is somewhere mid-atlantic right now.
i'm using UE ti pivot balls(hopefully strong enough with plastic arms), UE servo saver kit,UE turnbuckles,1930/8,4s lipo,single speed coupler,strobe,big bores,......

I liked the 3.3 parts because i prefer to use platic arms,bulks and towers and i like the 3.3 sliders,no pins to fall out and they're nice and smooth and should be strong enough.Also i like a full set of spares and it's cheap to get the 3.3 parts from ebay chop shops.Should be a relatively light build too.
