LAZER ZX5 Truck conversion
Hey there Just wanted to share my ZX-5 truck conversion, used a pair of Rear shocks and universals on the front, remachined some rear arms to fit , custom made the front tower out of an old B4 battery retainer and a rear zx-5 carbon weave tower.The HPI front Rims needed to be lathed to clear the uprights. Very stable and quick, Only running a 14 x 2 and took the one way out of the front because the soft wide tyres had too much steering. looking to get a custom carbon front tower made up permanently once i get the geometry right. The hardest bit was finding a shell which suited the wheelbase, ended up with a T4 nitro crowd pleazer which sits nice and easy to mount by turning the rear wing mounts around dropping them lower by a hole. Any others out there doing the same? Would welcome your ideas
