Hello and welcome to Part 3 of my build guide for the awesome Tamiya Super Clod Buster. Today we get the chassis finished! This part covers the completion of steps 27 - 34 of the user manual, which includes attaching the front and rear axle assemblies to the chassis, fitting the electronics and top deck, building and fitting the shocks, and finally fitting the tyres and wheels
I hope you find this guide useful and if you have any questions please feel free to ask in the comments section.
Many thanks to Bob of @UncleBobsRC for sending me a full set of metal bearings and hardened steel pinions. He also gave me a few build tips to pass on to you! Cheers mate!
And of course a massive shout-out to the ever-generous RC Elf for gifting this incredible RC Monster Truck!
