Latest Money Pit! The XT8

[TDC57]

I got the Truggy from a RCM family member and it’s in better shape than I expected, but since it new to me I did what I and everybody else would do, I stripped it down and gave it a complete overhaul, changed out the oil in the diff, re-lubed the bearings, changed out the front and rear caster & toe bushing to better handle my environment and incopreated the newest craze (Added (4) XRay 808 buggy Shocks)

It will have the following drive train / electronics
• Neu 1515 1Y F
• MGM com-pro ESC 8s compatibility
• 5s or 6s (still TBD) I need to PM (Cornolio, Rschoi_75 & Sower) for advise on this one
• JR Z9100T steering servo


So here is where I'm at with my new toy:











I just opened a new bottle of wine (for encouragement) and with any luck I should have it back together sometime in the AM hours. I'm trying to complete it before I take off for Vacation, we’ll see if that happens (?)

Anyway,
Thanks for your time team and have a great weekend / what left of it!..

Shaun.
