G'day Guys,
Here a few pic's of my clod axle crawlers,
Specs are:
Locked clod axle's
55t Integy Lathes
12/12 Pinion combo
Twin 645mg hitec servo's
Twin moped esc (no clod stall!!)
NN Chassis
T-Maxx shocks
3800nimh main pack(soon to be 4000mah LIPO)
1300nimh servo pack
Narrows rustler rims
Proline crawler tires with cuts down foams
Airtronics MX3S
Novak XXtra reciever.

I've had the truck for three years and have been through 3 axle shaft and destoryed the front servo on my last trip out.

I recently aquired a CR-01 and am now working on making it half the crawlers my clod is.........:p

Apologises for the poor quality pics, camera is cactus at the moment, I will grab some decent pics next time i go out

cheers
Luke

Hello fellow Aussie and welcome to the site!

your clod looks good but sounds heavy with all that gear. sounds like it's a performer though.

quite a beauty, I started with a Clod Crawler and since the market has flooded with smaller shaftcrawlers I'm thinking I need to go back and build another one of these amazing things for my dedicated crawler. I really like the look of your machine!

Thanks Wyoming,
Would you believe i started with shafties (txt-1 and jugg based) and moved onto the clod.:D

Future plans are to fit a HPI Defender 90 body because as a landrover owner i can't handle driving a Jeep much longer!:cool:

BTW I love the look of your scale D90 you really nail the look. It had my father convinced it was real. Now he wants me to build him one!

Hi Mate,
Whats heavy for a crawler? I find its super stable and this is probably due to the wieght.

Got and pics of your rigs?

cheers

Great looking build. I bet it's a blast to drive. I should try dual esc tog et rid of clod stall.
