Dual bypass shocks, and NP205.... (the detail is amazing!)

Uh-oh.... Framerails gotta go!

This ESC has to move, as well....
009-1.jpg


Seriously, I commend the amount of detail these rigs have!

This is goin' back in....

The framerail used to be the spacer.
Four tiny washers on each side solved the issue....
013-3.jpg


Had to drill out some holes for the Crawler's Shock Towers.
Also, Dremel'd out a space for the ESC, under the engine bay.
014.jpg


That looks about right....
015-1.jpg


Like a glove!
(grounded the body-mold tabs down, as well.)

Test-fitting...
017-2.jpg


After EXTENSIVE rewiring....
019-3.jpg


Looks fairly stock, still..... Right?
022-3.jpg


Ya.... I sure did.
The top-half of the engine is mounted atop the ESC.
(I accidentally popped the valve covers off... They have rockers underneath!)

So happy I kept the engine! :D

Cool!!:bow:
Can't wait until I get mine...:D
I ordered the Hawai blue version...which is almost the same as my 1:1 which is two tone brilliant blue and white.
(Only big difference is the 1:24 blazer is a '79/'80 and the 1:1 is '91!)

Can't you fit the big tyre's underneath it...???
 
That's crazy (subscribed) Are yuou painting it like your rig too?

Sweet!

You can stuff scale 44's under it EASY....
The stock tires on the losi micro is a scale 39" tire, I believe.
:thumb:

The tire that comes on the Blazer is a 1:24 scale - 42" Irok.
I'd have to mod the tire to fit on the losi axle, but it's really stiff rubber.
Not really a good crawler tire.

Thanks! :D

I wanted to show people how to do it.
In case someone else wanted to....
I couldn't find a SINGLE 1:24 blazer conversion, on the web.
(except for plastic models, but who wants a plastic Blazer!??)

And yeah, I'm gonna make it a 1:24 version of my real Blazer.
Paint, interior, and all!!!
