Band sander ! Yeah man. Bushing at hardware store , or McMaster . Run without see how long they last then drill for bushing , maybe check fit of existing caster bush see how that looks

Thank you phreerider! I went to the hardware store and couldn't find any of the proper size. Will keep looking. Meanwhile I may just use them like that and see how it goes like you said.

Thanks!

My current engine is a self ported 30.5cc (only 1 tank in it). I'm eyeballing the new G320rc for the extra torque but if my current engine is up to the task, I'll use the money to get more 7075rc parts. If not I'll get them later.

don't forget diff cup sleeves!

Oh yeah, already got the copper pipe!

You have a great sense of smell my friend! Coming soon! Just don't know if I want to make it out of 1/8"-1/4" aluminum or 1/4" ABS plastic. What you think?

Thanks pheerider!

 

[phreerider]

maybe 1/8 with a bend so it will collapse a bit on impact.

1/4 with tapered edge bush wacker ready!

Ride stance.



And then you take that body off and there is all that emptiness. That roll cage got to go or grow up and fill up the front space, lol!

 

[phreerider]

looks good man, add a centered over head shot, so the width of the pan chassis is can be realized better. ....may need a big block to fill it up!

i am currently trying to fit a gp 460 into MT chassis, the 54mm clutch switch going better that i thought, gear plate works out ok, the chassis, soon as i get it, may be challenging. once i get the roller i'll start pics rolling

heres a thought , tower 2 tower ladder cage with oval cutouts (girder style beam) made from the 1/4' ...exo cage style, notch and pin so its easy off and on, definitely offers full protection

Not a bad idea at all!

So this 2 boxes showed up



Box 1





Box 2 ... Wait a minute I didn't even get to it yet. Reason unfortunately the jetport pipe doesn't fit. The loop in the back is too high and wide out. Bummer... Emailed Dino@jetpro, will see what happens.

meanwhile...

 

[designed2survive]

And pheerider here the center overhead view you asked for.



Alright let me open that box from DDM now.
