Due to some unexpected expenses :005: my completion date for this truck has been extended.:007:

I couldn't pass up this deal.... an aluminum axle for my quad.



How ever before that i was able to order a mugen wing to go with my FLM shock tower.

This is the last good pic I've taken of it... not much different. 04' YFZ450.



I'm planning on running this pipe pretty soon.

Both the maxx and the quad look pretty damn amazing!

Very Nice!

That's actually Dumont (Thanksgiving weekend).

Made some progress on the quad last week.







Also got the Tmaxx out in the sunlight.

Didn't have plans to buy anything on the Tmaxx at this time... but Tower sent my a coupon to get $20 off my next $50 purchase.

So I got my steering servo (HS 645MG) and some other little things... all for $35 shipped.:027:



Up until now I haven't got a clear cut answer on what is needed for the Mugen wing to fit on the FLM shock Towers. I ordered these to see if they would work for the upper mounts.

http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/WTI0001P?&I=LXTW50

Drilled the FLM towers with a 1/8 bit.


I'll have more pics later.

Here's pic of the Mugen wing properly mounted on the FLM shock towers.... the Duratrax screws were the perfect length.





Also sorted out the throttle using the Ofna throttle parts.

WOW... I never updated this thread. Haven't driven the maxx in a while but I plan on doing some duning on my next trip (hopefully I can get a video camera by then).

Finally took out the Maxx (been sitting this whole time) and managed to break my servo and front bulkhead.

Ordered a HS-5645MG and want to upgrade to a receiver pack. Any suggestions on a good receiver 6V pack?

Also considering the FLM combo bulkheads. Any opinions on these?

Today I decided to work on the truck.

Here's the damage. Along with a stripped servo (second one I damage due to not having a servo saver) So I stepped it up.



New servo.



Took some better pics of the chassis (minus electrics).
