Schumacher Cougar SF
Here is my project i started a few months ago,its based on the idea of combining a Cougar KF/KR front end and a Cat SX rear end.
After seeing the new Yokomo YZ-2 released,with the all flat style transmission, i was reminded of the rear transmission of a Cat SX. My old Cats SX was still sleeping in its box,so after dusting it off i looked at it and imagined how i could combine the two car elements together. I started by taking measurements of both cars and began the design process in Solidworks. I've taken advantage of using some parts directly from the YZ-2 My inspiration is taken from the design of the YZ-2,and its weight distribution which allows for either shorty or saddle lipo's. By using the complete front end of a Cougar KF/KR and the complete rear end of a Cat SX i have been able to keep the conversion parts needed to a minimum, these are as follows: These are the specific parts needed for this conversion. Below are the pictures of the first assembly where only motor waterfall part is missing on the chassis Link to my Imgur Thanks to David Holmes who helps me for translation

Looks totally amazing, I've often thought about making a KM (a KF with a SV2 rear end). Please let us know how it drives once it's up and running.

Really like the look of this project, one question though, why are you no using the Schuy Shocks ?

Thanks
I did not mount Schuy shocks because the only I got are coming from SX1 (so not bigbore and were crappy). I'm addicted to Kyosho BB model and I've setup for them always in mind. Thus, instead of buying Schuy ones I prefer to mount K ones.
