Turbo's axial jk rubicon

[TURBOFEST]

Finally..The last piece of my electronics bundle has arrived! These new little WARN winches from RC4WD are pretty awesome looking! I also picked up the winch controller to go along with the new winch so I can have a nice clean install. Keep the awesome "officially licensed" parts coming RC4WD!

Well, it's been quite awhile since I have updated this thread.


A few upgrades since the last round consist of:


FINISHED DRIVELINE
I snagged some Super Shafty Bomb Proof outputs for the trans. I went with a stubby for the front and a standard for the rear. With the new 6mm outputs that meant also getting some MIP 6mm driveshaft Hub for my MIP driveshafts and some Traxxas screw pins to tie it all together. I also got those from Rick @ Super Shafty! "thumbsup"





SUPER SHAFTY 6MM OUTPUT HUB FOR MIPS DRIVESHAFTS


SUPER SHAFTY "STUB" 6MM OUTPUTS FOR AXIAL TRANS


SUPER SHAFTY "STANDARD" 6MM OUTPUTS FOR AXIAL TRANS


TRAXXAS SCREW PINS FOR MIP DRIVESHAFTS


FINISHED WIRING (except lights )


I put a Holmes Hobbies BRXL and Castle Creations BEC inside an electronics box that fit like a glove on the R2J rock sliders. I went with a 4000mah, 3S NanoTech Lipo. It's long and shallow and fits perfectly between the shock hoops on the SCX10. Mix in a Holmes Hobbies 27t torquemaster and this thing was unstoppable!


All nice and clean






Now, it's been awhile since I updated, so, I've driven this thing a lot since some of these mods have been done. I decided to enter this rig in the new Trail Class at the North East National Qualifier thinking it would be fun to try and fend off the Wraiths and 4WS purpose built Trail rigs with my Scaler. Well, not only was the Trail class an absolute blast to drive in, but the little bugger actually pulled out a WIN! I wouldn't have guessed it possible before hand, but now I think this rig will be my full time trail classer! Super fun Class!

When Vanquish Products released the Q-Series LED lights (Vanquish Products - Rigid Industries - Q series LED Lights), I knew immediately what i wanted to do with them. So, I picked up a pair of Black ones and started brainstorming. I mocked up some simple brackets for the lights, that I will refine after everything is done and running. Here is what i have so far. Rigid Q-Series LED JK Rubicon Headlights
Worked out PERFECTLY!!!


Gotta get these and my VP Rigid Light bar wired up so I can get out and blind some wildlife.
