Loving the C4.2T JonD, Shame the trucks aren't as popular as they were.

Heres a couple of pics of the mods I've done to my TC02T, now dubbed the TC02T+

1st indications are from the shell, the rear mounts are now further back, this makes getting the clips one and off a whole lot easier, as their original position between the number boards was fiddly. The shell has been lowered also.




Ah, that could be how then, the wing/body mounts have been moved back and down with this little number, no drilling/butchering required either, but what's that in the lower right of the picture?




A pair of little chassis braces, again, machined so that no extra work is needed to the standard chassis components.




The thing that tells the story though is here, a new T piece, giving a 15mm increase in wheelbase, thus making the truck less square, and hopefully, less prone to it swapping ends when someone so much as looks at it in a funny way.




All pieces are machined from 6062, programmed by hand off the top of my head, in lunch breaks over a number of weeks (and the odd sly one in works time of course)

Testing it out at the weekend at my local with any luck. Hope you guys like.
