How To Make A Scale RC Tire Rack

 Here is a quick tutorial on how to build a scale rc tire rack!  
 

Scale Rail Wilkey Bug Build

E.1 The Plan

I lay out the game plan for this Scale Rail Baja Bug.

E.2 Tacing things together

I start making some progress on the cage. And keep it looking as bug-like as possible. 

E.3 Building the Rear Bumper

I go over how I like to use the bender that can be found in our tools we use section. I also go over how to cope the 3/16 material.

E.4 Using the FIxture Table

I show how to set up the flat fixtures to hold tabs in place on some 1/8th material. This is used to make a radiator mount.

E.5 Final Welding

I debrief the build then talk about our Modular Fixture Tables and Fixtures.

Take all measurements from the front of the chassis back. Millimeters is our preferred unit of measure for tiny trucks.

I-Beam Pivot Box

  • 47mm back from front end

Left Side as you know the beams are offset so that means your shock towers will be also. Keep that in mind when building.
