Click to Subscribe! ► - A few weeks ago Curtis Landry of Black Sheep Customs asked if he could build me a cage. Turns out he already had a few for sale that I liked. I chose the G-made Sawback Jeep rock bouncer cage. It's a beauty..and its made out of 3/16 Brake Line Tubing. Brazed with Silver Solder, with painted in flat black. This is Super Strong! I see a lot of potential, even in upgrading to an MOA setup, with rear steer. But for todays film, I figured I would strip one of my wraiths "OLD" style plastic cages.. and upgrade it to this LANDRY SPECiAL.
Here is a link to the Black Sheep Customs Facebook page: (I've used bitly to shorten the link to the Facebook page).
The axle housings I am using today are Vanquish Products aluminum housings. Titanium Axles, and beefed up high clearance links are also on this build, with MiP Drive Shafts. Yes, I did have to modify my lower aluminum skid plate.. but my grinder and rotating cutting tool made short work of it. A bit of black paint, and I was only my way within ten minutes.
Upon the completion of the upgrade, I take a look at the wheels and tires I am installing for the moment. Next I am going to have to decide what kind of power system I am going to install... choices choices! It will be a Tekin system, probably an RX8 or RS ESC.. and some crazy motor.. but we will see what I have kicking around.
Also, I have to consider what battery to hook into this system.. hmmm, how much room will I have? If I switch to MOA, the RC4WD Bully 2 Competition axles.. then I will have 100% of the transmission space for.. well.. what ever I like.. hehe.
