All Metal Drive Train: I think I have the rear end complete.

All Metal Drive Train:

I think I have the rear end complete. It’s definitely a challenge with the shorter wishbone a-arms. The shocks are the same length, but have less travel with the shorter a-arms. Seems like it will work though.

I received the central differential today. I just need to find my fast eddy package of bearings…

What do you think?

What size turnbuckles did you end up going with?

bcrazycramer · September 16, 2015, 1:21am

I think they are 75mm overall. I made them in 123d design.

Nice, don’t forget to share on thingiverse!

Will do. Just want to make sure it works first.

Hi, @bcrazycramer , did you manage to use thsse without frame modification, especially length of wishbones? Thnx.

Hi @Roland_Barenbrug , Yes, I used the those shorter wishbones and they seem to work. I haven’t really used it much, but the day I did out on the pavement was fun. I’m not really happy with the limited movement on the front suspension, but I haven’t found an alternative.
