i never owned one and wish i got one before they were disco. i found all the pics online over the last couple of years and if u sell this one ever, please tell me.

[bounty_hunter]

yea..i hear ya..thats why im happy i got this one, and i got it for a steal! the whole thing was brand spankin new in the package when i recieved it. the guy never used it, not once. does it look like i have everything? it seems like im missing the crossmembers where the body mounts are supose to attatch to.. and i think im missing the shock mounts also. if anyone has any pics of their ttr chassis, please post them.

Thanks, Nick.

for the shock mounts try these http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...4%3C%2FB%3E179 tamiya #9804179

Body mounting front and rear was done by a crossmember that a stampede rear body mount set bolted to so you'll have to fab that

[bounty_hunter]

so a crossmember for the body mounts never came with the chassis to begin with?

[William]

it did, but you don't have them.
That is why I said you'll have to fabricate something.
Believe if my memory serves me correct they were a piece of stamped sheet metal. Been a long time since I sold mine.

[bounty_hunter]

Gotcha, guess I'll have to make my own. I have to post a pic up here of a part that came with the chassis. I don't know what it is, so maybe you guys can help me out. I'll post pics later.

[stangnomore]

pm dirtovalrich, I believe he has one and may be able to give you the pictures you need.

[bounty_hunter]

Anyone know what this part is? It came with the chassis, but i dont know where it goes or what purpose it serves.

[SavedONE]

-it looks like a battery retainer, and I think that the ESC & RX may also mount to it. It's tough to tell in the pics, but the Assoc. battery cups have
an allen-head screw, 2 total, 1 diagonally across from the other, they're drilled through the cap-heads, to accept body pins, that hold the bar on, see what I mean, (tho, I could be wrong, & it could be some kind of bottle opener or shoe horn)

[bounty_hunter]

i could see what you mean, lol, but the piece doesnt fit on the battery holer as a holder, thats why im confused.

[bounty_hunter]

so, im trying to get all the pede parts onto this badboy, but, there is a black piece where the bulkhead is supose to attatch to, but the stock screws arent long enough, am i supose to use some other screw? Need serious help, thanks.

[moparkid88]

cage is awsome.. if i had the extra time at work id make you some one off stuff..

[bounty_hunter]

let me know if you can, i need shock mounts made, i might be able to make them myself, but idk yet.

[moparkid88]

ill have to stop by or somthing and ill figure it out and get somthing together for you. but idk when ill be able to have the time at work.. its insane rite now.. how much you get the chassis for and where?

[bounty_hunter]

well, i the cage was being sold on ebay, and i made a deal with the dude for $140 shipped to my door. He said when he first got it, it cost him $270. The thing was brand new and never used. It was still in the plastic when i got it, haha. Heres a buildup pic, and here are some specs.

TTR cage and chassis.
new shocks are coming soon, along with the cantilever kit from TTR.
rc4wd Beadlocks.
Masher 2k tires.
I also plan on getting a mamba max pro or VXL system.

But thats it for now, heres the build pic so far.

[bounty_hunter]

oh yea, your right will, i forgot you posted that, i need to get those, maybe the local hobby shop has some. sorry will, i forgot. Thanks man.

[Pedester]

I think Stangnomore just sold a set of TTR shock mounts.
The Tamiya units might work, but I doubt the holes will line up for use on the chassis. Don't drill into the chassis. Drill new holes into the mounts if possible.

Also, you will need to use longer screws for the front bulks. Otherwise the stock ones will pull right out.
