Ha! I'm watching this as background while I modify my little Losi mini T into a short course truck. I had to cut the body for the rear shock tower but it looks cool and different. Used one of the WlToys 1/18 bodies. Just need to jack up the shocks so the wheels clear without having to do more cutting. Fun, fun!
Nice rig! I'll be copying a lot of your upgrades with my ecto after I finish my Kraken Pro. Would have been nice to see the stance off the stand though. Good job!
I really love ecto, sendero, and gatekeepeer. Great video, west desert wheeler turned me on to your channel and I cant wait to try some of your products....his 10.2 is the best looking crawler ive seen outside of comping............glad ive discovered you.
I can't wait see what other partsyour going have ! I just ordered power wagon sliders, and shock towers!! I prob ended up getting another set wagon sliders soon for a build have !! Great products from Rock Pirates 🤘🏻👍
2 questions on the shock towers: 1) Is there a benefit to putting on a cross brace between the shock towers like there is on the stock towers? 2) Do the new towers weight less than stock? I wish the towers were a little longer to put the shocks at a little more of an angle for more travel. Thanks.
definately going to buy the tray towers and sliders......you should manufacture a little bracket for the trailing arms to mount up you know the plastic piece you kept inthis video ifyou just made oneout of metal id buy them for my ecto!
Will likely be building an Ecto next, so interested in your series of mods. All cool. However, as a child of the 70's I have to ask, where did the mini posters of Farrah and Daisy, of the garage walls come from??? And yes, I actually DID have that Farrah poster on my bedroom wall back in the day!
I been running my lipo up front using cable ties since i got this got my ladder chassis crawler, no battery box, it makes a lot of difference on running the battery in the rear which i did not like from the get go on this crawler. I wish i could afford to splash out on one of these bad boys but even if i had the money it would be hard to justify buying another rig when i have several that have many, many hours of bashing and crawling on them and a couple of crawlers that are more than good enough for me. 8
Excellent video :)) I'm lovin the Rock Pirate Upgrades ...... and....Where do I get one of those 1/10 Scale Workshop Sets in the background ??? i need one Very Badly lol
I see it as the protect the driveshaft. If there was more clearance, the driveshaft would drag more. They allow good articulation, with great side hill ability
Been back and forth between these two videos and can’t find where you say what Vanquish servo horn you ended up running. We’ve got a Gatekeeper currently running a Creep body with all these upgrades minus the battery tray. Horn the car came with is stripped so curious what you used.
@@rockpiratesrc3828 awesome, thank you. We’ve got an old version on the gatekeeper that the screws are stripped since we got it. I’ll be adding a new one soon, thanks
