fg super twin monster

[dopeyiniraq]

ok so i have been messing around w my fg monster truck for some time now n i have decided to make it a twin engine 6x6 monster truck as of right now its just gonna twin 26s but after a get the mounts n stuff made im gonna have 2 62cc motors w reeds n head kits they r going to b the quickest 62s out right now cause i have been talking to ppl that do the 60 n they say that no one has a 62 w mods n a reed they just have reeds i also have to make some exhausts for the 62s but i plan to also make it a 6x6wd instead of 4x4 n then ill make the cage n make it an alloy truck n make a body also but here r some pixs if i can load them up

n im still waiting on parts to get the 62cc mounted in this tank i call the SUPER TWIN FG

n w the 62s theres alot of machining a buddy has to do cause the head has to get twisted 180 to work right n do the porting n reed kits n in all the project has not cost me that much at all i got the chassis for $200 n the suspension parts r 200-250 each n the motors r just stock baja motors for now but the 62s r gonna cost bout 800 each cause of the machining but yea its coming along really well i hope u guys like it

n i have lots to do w the body that i haven't even started lol but i have to cut 2 bodys to make one n i might look into doing a 6x6x6 w it but i dnt think that will b able to happen cause of how the rear ends r put together

wow mate now thats guna look awsome can't wait to see the finished truck

 

[dopeyiniraq]

yea me either but i just was looken around online n saw a 4 axle one kinda upset me but im gonna have all axles working just need to figure out wat parts #s r for all alloy for a 2wd monster truck if anyone has fg part #s for the complete rear end of the truck that would b great

 

[dwarfy]

I understand how you make 4x4 from 1 engine but how would you make 6x6 with 2 engines and not have 1 pair of wheels effectively 2wd and therefore uselessly spinning out? The concept is great tho BTW

 

[roofchopper]

hi mate reminds me of my arrrgo

its all boxed up till a rainy day

 

[sperera]

wow awesome work. bit concerned about the cut out in middle, looks like it might be weak point, cant wait to follow the build though.

 

[dopeyiniraq]

thats the mild axle n the plate is 5mm thick

 

[sperera]

good stuff, so whats the next step? how u planning on handling the longer throttle/brake linkages?

 

[dopeyiniraq]

im gonna make a second servo for the rear brake n throttle

 

[sperera]

awesome. looking foward to following your build mate.

 

[charlieboy]

[t2boats]

lookin good i ain't gonna ask how much of your hard-earned you've been spending.... have u considered making the rear axle counter-steer a little to help the front end? would help with cornering, be really easy to set up n all.

 

[mi16joe]

looks good rear steer would be good too!!! whats the body gona look like some army cross desert trooper!
