Scaler Tow Vehicle

[Nitro1]

Hello creators!
Over the years, I have accumulated quite so many parts for cars,trucks etc..
That's why I decided a few days ago to make my own crawler with a certain function.
First days I didn't know exactly what would even make?
Today, however, I decided to make a towing vehicle
Half of the chassis is a cheap China TRX clone ZP1001 Defender with some old parts of Injora.

Front axle (for now) is also from ex Defender , rear axle i got for gift by friend and really dont know by what brand it is..maybe Injora too.

I made new links, shock absorbers is from ex DF-4S chassis.

540 brushed motor, one old Turnigy 60A crawler ESC and Nimh Battery 3000mah also from DF4S

Modified Absima Sherpa body (now just a half lol), RPM 2.2 plastic rims with added some lead and Louise CR-Champ 1.9 soft tyres with home made foam inside

Still some work on the back side, install the winch, paint the framework
And for now this is it.
see ya..

Hi @Nitro1

Nice how to show to create a car out of spare parts!

I have some suggestions for improvement.

Threaded rods as links can get caught with the ground in the terrain. In my opinion, it would be better to push a 4/6mm aluminum or brass tube over the M4 threaded rod. This will make the links smooth and glide well over any obstacle.




The inner pusher of the cardan shafts should face the transfer case and the outer smooth pusher should face the axles. In this way, the toothing of the pushers is better protected.


Best regards!
