85cc monster Grave Digger

[John Parks]

Ordered a special edition Primal Grave Digger. Figured I would start a build thread. Going to save the body and cage, purchased a Mega body and cage to swap it out. Also ordered an Alx 85cc for it, built the diffs with Taylor cups and 500k fluid. Also got my Agfrc 78kg servos in, and the extension kit.

Very nice! Can't wait to see this build.

This will be a big build.

Awesome!!

 

[John Parks]

I'm terrible at taking pics, but managed to get a few. Upgraded diffs in, Agfrc 78kg servos in, 2" wheelbase extension in, Taylor extended hubs on. Need to swap engine still, should be only a few weeks out. Will remove once I get close to that.

 

[RickDizzle]

Nice! Be sure to flip your steering links to the bottom of the steering link mounts. Much better geometry and same throw.

Also did it come with the dual shock set up?

Lastly what extended hubs you running? I didn't know Taylor had any?! I have the JS ones they have held up amazing so far. Curious if the Taylor ones are wider?

Thanks man, I love the body so far

Absolutely me too!

 

[Clubin]

There isn’t words to describe it. I’m speechless. It’s so perfect!!

 

[John Parks]

Finish the grave digger Stickers or no stickers?

 

[Clubin]

I personally would put them on if it was me. And you we’re asking.

 

[Rep732]

Stickers

 

[Xrsboy2016]

I would put them on

 

[RickDizzle]

Dude for sure...decals! They are big surface area...so be sure to float them and work slow with a second person. Will come out amazing as all your work does sir!

Glad they did the flames for ya...those would be a pain in the butt with the curves...my 1/10 rig Diggers always sucked doing that part!

P.S. that rig is whispering...."I need 4 wheel steering".

I literally just heard it.

 

[Seandonato73]

I vote stickers too...
And agree with Rick since we're spending your money.
