Looks real good. I'm lacking creativity at the moment though, so maybe someone else can come up with a name.

I'm thinking something along the lines of pony, horse... something to go with Bronco.

[Highmark]

I really dig that rig, looks like it would work really well.


One question though, any idea of how big the outputs on the revo yokes are?

[Jugg2Driver]

You could call is Maxximizer, or Braxx, or Maximum Bronco,........erm I'm out of names now!

[MrB]

thats cool man, i love it!

[Spoon37]

hmmm.... so many questions.....

whats with the 125 1/4" steel balls in each front tyre?? do u need the weight? I would have thought it would lose grip due to being quite hard in effect.....

in the first pic your axle seems to be swinging out from under the chassis rather than up towards the chassis - is that right or is it an illusion cuz of the angled axles? normally with staright axles I would say you need better link geometry.....(I do mean that constructively I'm not trying to put you down..... :) )

as for a name....I dunno.....all I can think of is rockspyder...and I'm sure thats been done a few times already...... :poke:

nice work tho......you seem to be making a few great crawlers of late.....

:banana:

Thanks everyone

The out puts on the revo yokes are the same as the Maxx.

Spoon- The steel balls in the front tires make the axle heavier, which means more traction. Also all of the weight would be at the lowest point of the tire always, because they stay low when the tire rotates. I only use them in the front so it'll be better for hill climbs and won't flip over as much.
The suspension doesn't normally do that, I think the axle might be rubbing the body and pushing it.

[Highmark]

Okay in this one scene torwards the nnd of the movie Samuel L. Jackson who played "Jules" and John Travolta who played "Vincent" go to this little dinner to pic up some food. So as they're setting there Jules begins to explain that he's getting out of "the buisness" and is going to basically become a hobo. Then all of a sudden a man and his wife ( played by Tim Roth and Amanda Plummer) rob the restraunt and all of the customers of there wallets and jewlry. Well to make a long story short Jules defuses the situation and askes Tim for his wallet back. Tim asks him which wallet it is in the bag and Jules says....

"The one that says Bad Mother ......"

:lol:

Good movie-I've seen it *a few* times.
