I can't believe the detail....nicely done Mike!

Yes it was! Lol
I carry 10 extra gallons now and with my custom fuel station I think I will be ok!!:haha:
 
mini thumper is badassness in a small package!
 
Jana 76 for Thumper

All my parts from Jantz 4x4 or Jantz Engineering should be delivered to the Shop today!
http://jantz4x4.com//jantz.php?p=detail&pro=jana_76

I am also adding the Jana Load bolts
http://jantz4x4.com//jantz.php?p=detail&pro=load_bolts

and the Jana Girdle
http://jantz4x4.com//jantz.php?p=detail&pro=girdle

All this installed in my Dana 60 Housing should make my Dana 60 44% stronger!:bow:
I guess I will find another weak point after this is installed!
Thank you to Stephen from ORD for hooking me up with Carl Jantz!!
This looks to be the fix for Thumpers front end!!:waytogo:
I am having a shop install it for me since I am at work until September 25th and we need to be in Grand Junction the evening of the 25th for Blazer Bash! The Shop said they will take pictures of the install and send them to me so I will post on this thread as I get progress pictures! I'm kind of excited about this upgrade!:woot:
 
CFM "Carter Fab Machine" is doing the Scale build for me! He does killer work!

Here is the build Thread on Mini Thumper
http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/1-9-scale-rigs/454456-thumper-senior-cfm.html
man, as ****ing sweet as the real rig is, those two scale rc's are flipping insane in the membrane!

if you don't mind my asking, can you tell us (pm is fine too) how much that scale set up will cost you in the end? i'd love to get something like that done at the end of my build.

The Big Mini Thumper will be around $1,750 when done but that includes all top of the Line parts, Radio, Cover, Spare parts, Charger and extra batteries. 2s Lipo & 3s Lipo batteries. The 3s batteries will make it look like is it on NOS! Lol :rolleyes:

My Boy's cost right at $500 with extra Batteries, charger and Radio.

Not cheap but I know it will be worth it when everything is done! I did not skimp on big Thumper so I did the same with Mini Thumper!:waytogo:
 
Mini THUMPER Done!

Mini THUPER is done! Clay at Carter Fab & Machine CFM will be sending it to my house on Wednesday!:waytogo:
I think it turned out awesome! Good job Clay!! He even got the light bar on it! Lol:bow:

That's way too cool.


Coulda just had that built and saved a butt load of cash on the real k5 :haha:
 
That is the most impressive RC I have ever seen!!!

That thing is a major piece of craftsmanship!
Very impressive!
The work done by Carter Fab must be reassuring after the trouble you had with some of the work done on "full size Thumper".

It would have been awesome to check both of them out at BB, but as luck would have it, my shop is so busy now, that I can't comfortably be away for the 2 weeks in Moab like we had planned.

Have fun!

Seriously Awesome rigs Mister!!
All 3!!:bow::bow::bow:
