After seeing what a customer of ours did to his RC10 after adding one of our RC10 cages I am seriously toying with the idea of a fully made(or mostly made) alloy Javelin, hence; The Silverblack... here comes the obsesive spending again
My plan is to use an already made Javelin aluminum rollcage I have that I was planning to use on my Green Monster. The problem is that I am more in favor of a really nice metallic green coat rather than to green anodize the cage. So in order not to coat one of the only two aluminum Javelin rollcages in existance that I've made I decided to use one of our standard stainless steel for the Green Monster and coat it metallic green and use the aluminum one for the alloy build.
The plan:
I am planning on using the aluminum rollcage(obviously) and polish it. I will also make unique factory stock style(not option house) aluminum side guards and buy or make the following; aluminum top deck, deck support, arms, new polished shocks(probabbly Integy), fabricated or CNC'd aluminum bumber, bumper brace, alloy wing, linkages, hubs, screws, wheels and spindles.
What I am still debating on is the fabrication of CNC transmission cases, chain cover, steering bellcrank and other parts alike, so that's why it will be named Siverblack since it will not be an entirely aluminum made Javelin.
I also have the following questions; Will the Laser ZX5 spindles work on the Optima hubs? Did Kyosho ever made shiny dogbones and shafts or are there any that will fit?
More pictures with the build later, this one for sure is going to be a slow one....
