so, gonna put a start on this build log,
nothing really to show, just starting the log ,
this is gonna be a very long build, and based loosely around bobby tanners1;1 screamin blue rock bouncer/racer,
gonna be a very complicated build with lots of custom one off home made parts and lots of problem solving along the way,
theres gonna be a fair bit of mix n match parts as well from different 5th scales,
some or most of which will need modding as i go along,
based around 30 DNT running gear of which i bought a roller last week as a donor car,
i've been sick as a dog the last few days, so been working a few things out,
i asked about shock sizes the other day on here and @RickDizzle kindly posted up the raminator shock dimensions,
after working out some stuff the ram shocks are just way too long,
but i-rc baja rears are about the perfect length, so will be using baja rear i-rc's all round,
also using kraken maxxis trepador tyres which are huge ,
this build may be the ideal one for the taylor 35cc engine as well
a few rough dimensions are below,
total length around 900mm
total width around 500mm,
cage length around 770mm,
cage width around 300mm
total height around 380mm when sat on its tyres,
still have to gather more parts and materials yet, but this build is finally gonna happen,
albeit taking quite a while ,
i'll probably post up parts gathering as i go and the strip down of the 30 DNT as well,
hope any of ya that watch this build enjoy it ,
