The start of my rig - pwnzor - 02-05-2007
This is the start of my racing rig I am "attempting" to put together, lol..........I am still waiting on my KhZ braces, X1cr buggy front bumper, paintjob for my body, a few more plastics for the CrT, engine, and a starter box, and a good nut/allen driver set, these RD logics I have are craaaaaaaap. I will post more pics as new parts come in, I just ordered the updated reciever box, dual filter mounting bracket, tank puller, decals, pinions, gearcases,mugen grey fuel line,diff fluids, bearing oil, after run oil, MtR bowties, O'donnell temp gun, new heatsink head for Fantom FR, and a Radical turbo button for it as well and some p3 plugs, I'm slowly but surely getting there, I need the Team Magic 1/8 scale hauler, that will come at some point

NIce dude! Looks brand new
The start of my rig - pwnzor - 02-05-2007
thx a lot guys!! yeah apparently it was taken care of, I have had it entirely apart, and cleaned everything, I need to redo my diff oils when my fluid gets here, at the same time new pinions are going in F&R,and I'm going to replace the center diff cups as well, they are showing some wear

looks good man, the only thing I wish I had was the 1 piece motor mount. I just put mine back together with the tony's screw kit I got. still got to put my b7 in and get a tuned pipe from a friend. here is an old pic before I went to the pro series at lh, or maybe it was after, lol.

hey for the nut drivers try matco tools. They are like 40 for a set. Lifetime warranty and top quality grade tool
The start of my rig - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 02-05-2007
they make a nice airbrush too if anyones interested
The start of my rig - pwnzor - 02-05-2007
yeah, thats a Dace nickel finish, Im gonna swap the Dace black shock towers as soon as KhZ has them available, I talked to them, they said 4 weeks
as far as nut drivers, I like looks of the Losi set in the plastic case

looks good... you have something coming your way via USPS..... just so you know don't use the Jammin tank lid puller. My buddy and I both tried them, When you flip upside down they pull your fuel tank open. Your best bet is a zip-Ty and some fuel tubing
The start of my rig - pwnzor - 02-05-2007
oh hey thanks man, I appreciate that................on the Jammin tank puller, that sucks, maybe it can be shortened?
also, does anyone know the ofna part # for the flexible wire mount pipe hanger that comes with all the new JP series pipes?
The start of my rig - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 02-05-2007
dont bother just use a zip tie why risk it

Zip tie loop with fuel tubing is cheap, easy, and reliable.

I'm sure that just about everyone on here had bought stuff that didn't work out for racing.
The start of my rig - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 02-05-2007
it sticks up to far past the hood and isnt flexible really so when the truck rolls and slides the tab is pinched and gets pulled open

lmao........its a plastic tank puller, it can be modified to work im sure, the only way I can see it being a hindrance is the length, beyond that, I'm stumped as to why it would flip the tank lid open:confused:
The start of my rig - Meatwad - 02-05-2007
if its not flexible why dont u boil it
The start of my rig - pwnzor - 02-05-2007
at this length would/could it be a problem?
