Re: Phoenix bullet arrow
There were some copies of the arrow cars made after they quit racing. The arrows were all tig welded. There are a few things on the car that look out of place. But it could have been someone just changed things out. I will get Jerry to look at the pic and see if anything stands out to him about the ...

Re: RC4WD install.
Great work! Does your rear end still have a functional diff? If so how did you keep both splined output shafts from pulling out of the diff? I am using C-clips sandwiched between bearings to hold mine. No, I eliminated the diff altogether. I wanted to make the rear a direct drop in for a skellenger...

Re: RC4WD install.
Yes. Im trying to use as many stock parts as I can. The left trailing arm is upside down because usually the bear carrier goes to the inside because the gear hub goes on the outside. Of course with this set up I dont need to do that. This puts the bearings as far out as possible to the wheels. Good ...

90's offset super modified.
I got the frame to this car about 10 years ago. I figured one day I would come accross some parts to put it together. Well fast forward to about two months ago. I got the original front axle and skellenger that were in the car in the early 90's. I started to put the chassis together and couldn't fig...

RC4WD install.
Well I've got the rear ready to bolt in a car. After I do some testing I'll let everyone know whats going on with it. I will have the parts made to convert any skellenger car over to the rc4wd rear. It will be a direct drop in.

Re: Frame specs
3/8 4130 tubing. If your not racing mild steel is fine. Mig welding is probably the most common weld but for a scale looking weld tig is the way to go. Engines are typically 23cc zenoah. BRP tires. He can make whatever size/stagger you need. If your racing belt drive is whats being used. They are th...
