DBXL Tear the ole girl down

[Seandonato73]

Yeah they all more or less break the same stuff. Wish the front sway bar links wouldnt keep breaking. Tbh I may hit up @Haric and see if he can make something stronger.

 

[Jshaff16]

I'll gladly 2nd that motion. I've never replaced em. Just don't have them operational

 

[Seandonato73]

Handles like a ? brick without the front hooked up. Just sick of buying complete sway bar kits for 2 plastic links.

 

[Jshaff16]

Your clearly a better driver than I am.

 

[Seandonato73]

Yeah idk about that... I've ran into plenty of stuff.

 

[Z.hb71]

He can't break stuff when it sits on a shelf ???????

 

[Jshaff16]

I haven't noticed poor handling. However probably been broke since probably first or second run.

 

[Seandonato73]

I break the fronts about every other tank. Normally it's just one side or the other, this last run was jumping quite a bit, and busted both the front links. Wanted to dig the one front corner in on turns after that. Guess I'm a bit particular how it handles.

????????????????????????

 

[Jshaff16]

My point exactly. I have no reason to fix em if they're constantly (and yes, constantly) breaking. In my defense the db doesn't get as much love as it once did.

 

[Seandonato73]

Mine gets none at all ? I have a drywall screw holding the rear hinge pin brace into the rear diff case.... stripped the bolt out when I hit the T post last weekend.

Now you know how it feels dik ?????????????

So mine got ran more or less daily untill I had kids, now it comes out every now and then. It's been golden for nearly 2 gallons of fuel.... your cant make it 3 tanks without shutting its pants, I tossed a dry wall screw in and fired it back up and ran. I'm not seeing the comparison your trying to make here. A factory defect is just that, a factory defect. If I knew why the front sway bara mounts constantly broke I would dam sure fix the issue. haven't been able to come up with a good reason yet.

It's easier to just buy another as I saw you umm "aquired" when ones down grab the other and go. Still looking for a winter build though.

Try removing the post with a tractor an not your RC!....

Ironically it's my arse hat neighbors post. I had my property surveyed and he didnt like the results. I told him he can take it to court, if he likes. So he proceeded to pound a row of T posts on the line.... hes been told to remove them, several times by our code enforcement officer. Another 2 months and I think I can pull them out. I'll be sure to use the tractor that time around.

Get you 8mm or what ever you hill Muppets use to film with ( apparently digital equipment not in the hills??) the day the arse hat neighbor let's rip???????

Well then ,I guess that you can pre-loosen them up with the RC ,definitly need to install some kind of impliment on the front of it though!...

I wasnt trying to hit it, I have a dirt pile i was jumping next to the property line, landed a bit goofy and gassed it, right into the T post. To be fair, I didnt notice what I did till I seen the rear dragging arse.

Did someone say front sway bar links?
I can definitely make them


I also made this steering link for my vekta.5
