Links to the driveshafts I'm running.
amzn.to/3vlHyHk 135-220 rear
amzn.to/3VwdG5y 66-85 front
remember all links to amazon are affiliate links that help the channel, thanks so much for using them.
how it works- When you order your parts thru the links, the channel gets a small percentage of that purchase, this does not affect your cost in any way.
The videos on this injora LCG chassis has me so pumped to get home and put mine together tonight! Keep being awesome 👍
Good luck with your build, and don't think you have to go by the book or everyone else. Do what works best. It's only wrong til others copy you 😆
So glad you're feeling better.
Herman deserves all the good that comes his way. He's really good people. Glad you did that for him.
He is always is in the comments and has been around a long time. And he's the only one that answered my question

Right-o. Good call on your part.
Just subscribed. Now I've got a lot of videos to watch haha. Enjoying the heck out of your videos man👍
Thanks so much
Awesome brother I didn’t want to say anything because I didn’t want in it glad he got it looks good definitely going to be hard to find the right drive shafts for it
BlWhen I built mine, the front drive shaft was definitely the most challenging. I added Traxxas Jato rod ends to both ends of the stock lower links and that really helped everything in the front to not bind. Plus it got me closer to the. 12.8 -13 inch wheel base I prefer to run. Enjoyed both vids so far. 👍🏼
Thanks, I just ordered different front links and driveshafts that should work, not sure why I'm drawing it out in so many videos, just not happy with how it comes from Injora. But still with the $53 just for the chassis I think
@@leesrcs I have $1500.00+ G-Shot. I wanted to give the budget minded Injora a shot just to see how it stacks up. Looking forward to seeing your updated video on your build. 👍🏼
Just found your page. This looks like a very interesting build. Thanks!
Don't get offended it takes years, lots of experience deep pockets to create content that's worth anyone's time to watch to the end!! it's only the top tier highly rated TH-camrs with amazing content, professional editing etc , such as Harley Designs, SB Guild ,Rc review, Exocaged, RcDriver, Hemistorm to name a few !! Overtime if your contents worth watching you'll be rewarded with subs and can slowly upgrade to professional camera equipment, eventually build a studio etc but very few are worth watching to the end so they never reach that platform....Good luck
No worries, I support those who support me, Herman has been around a long time, I'm not an actor or producer, I just show my opinion.
@Lees RCs I hear ya Bro ,hang in there your doing a good job..
Im trying to build my first lcg and this video help me hope you post much about lcgs crawler
It's all a learning experience for me too, I just show my opinion and try to set things up the way I think they will work the best. Thanks
Still on the fence about buying this chassis. Looking forward to seeing and hearing your thoughts on the run vid. Liked and Subscribed to see more!
Thanks, just waiting on parts
If you buy it from Injora,the right length driveshafts are linked to the chassis 😊
I got them with my chassis,fit's perfectly 👌
Nice video's btw 😉
Yeah, my mistake 🤷♂️
Can we fit the 313 links ?
I'm building one right now with capra axles all I really had to do to it was make a flat skid and drill a link mount for front upper link that was lower and in line with the upper but so far all looks good ready to run it
Some instruction from Injora with the kit might help lol
Congrats Herman
Great video, subbed. I agree with the rear bottom link
Thanks, I go with what works the way I want it to.
Got 2 of these chassis now, they run great , takes a little bit of work to get links correct , changing rod ends mainly but worth it in the end.
I agree, I ordered a different set of links and it works way better than what injora sends. Just waiting on my creep body to show up to finally do a run video.
This thing is gonna be cool Lee
I'm hoping so, thanks Thad
Yea I'm in the middle of the same exact build I finally figured out the links but now I'm on driveshats which as you know it's a pain in the ass. I got a few from other crawlers trucks I'm testing now.
Get the dlux brand drive shafts. There sold in a super long length and you cut them to where u need them. There amazing.
I already ordered some but I'll look for that brand for future projects, thanks
Pricey but worth it.
Looks interesting. Like what you did with the rear upper links 👍🏼
Thanks, it's all a learning curve, other people say that's wrong, or that won't work that way, I don't follow direction I make it work how I want even if wrong in others eyes. 👍🏻
@@leesrcs so true. How does the saying go??? There’s more than one way to skin a cat.
Just found out that EXO RC also makes and sells long, cut to length driveshafts. A little cheaper than DLux bus not in stock at the moment
Nice video & Congrats to Herman.
Congrats Herman ! Awesome
I used the scx10.2 builders kit as you mentioned.
Nice video bud, I've have the same chassis and yes your correct about the rear links...the picture is wrong bends go to the back..also injora do the correct length drive shafts but beware I had two set and both were not in phase..front top links are a joke next job for me is making new links for the front...keep up the good work n great videos 👍
Thanks so much, I have new links on order and shorter shocks, I found metal driveshaft also, not Injora. Should all be here this week
@@leesrcs I'm running 100mm shock on mine full droop set up seems good so far good flex and break over angles... still a bit of playing around set up wise and maybe a little more weight on the front axle....I also need to do a follow up video on my build
hey budd thank you so much .
love the clip lol had me rolling 🤣 😂
No prob buddy, I'll get it out to you soon, I know what I need for this LCG now.
@@leesrcs awesome budd thanks again . Hey budd would it fix your drive shaft problem if you flip the trans an skid plate basically turn it 180
@@hermansims304rcrawlingteam3 I've had it apart and tried several different variations. Hours!! lol
@@leesrcs lol I hear that took me 2hours to realize I was trying to put the wrong link on lol
Congrats Herman you will love it
Hi I have got the injora frame and I have use scx10 3 axle’s on the frame and I had to make the front in to a 3 link setup and the rear axle link isn’t setup opposite way to you plus running it on 2.2 wheels
I always put my bends near the diff on the front and back.
thanks, good to know, everyone was telling me i'm wrong.
Interesting your having issues with links. I went with the Fimonda chassis (basically the same) the links that kit uses are straight bar the rear lowers. The driveshafts are very close to the links but with right shims/spacers they’ll clear.
Yeah, not any real issues that would keep it from working I'm just picky about stuff 😆
@@leesrcs no shame in that.
Awsome build brotha im going to be building a maxx
Thanks 👍🏻
I watched to the end. So I can buy another crawler and build out the injora? I'm new to this stuff but I'm a quick study. I have the chassis and the motor and esc along with the shocks so I'm lost haha
It's all a learning curve lol
@Lees RCs I've learned. It's a new hobby. One of many expensive ones haha. I ordered a bunch of stuff last night haha
@@jstro-hobbytech its all new to me too, I never claim to know it all just show my struggles along the way
@Lees RCs we have alot in common. Metal as well haha as I sit and play my new schecter haha.
I've decided to build an rc and that nice rtrs are like a weeks pay. In Canada some are over 1500 on Amazon. Aliexpress seems a good spot. I used to be weary shopping there but it's easy to find honest merchants and you get points and discounts if you ask a seller you're buying multiple items from
My build won't start for a while but it's gonna be 1/10 with a custom 3d printed top. I'm pretty good at painting pla and I'll cut out the windows.
Is it better to buy a set of rims then tires
@Lees RCs life is a struggle. Chatting with friendly people who are like minded helps :)
I have ptsd and ramble alot. I apologize.
I like your videos. So How you bend front link rod?
I hope next video.
Video soon, I ordered more links that took care of the issues I didn't like.
@@leesrcs Okay! Good Luck!!!
Do LCG Chasis make it easier to high center. Im thinking about putting one on my scx10.2 but I already high center easier than I like.
there's a give and take, LCG are more for being able to climb steep angles and side hill without rolling, yes you will sit lower but you'll have to take different lines. Depends on if your wanting a climber or trail truck.
In other artificial lcg videos, the direction of the rod bent at the rear
Conversely, in other words, the curved side was installed toward the center and the date was installed toward the back.
I don't know which direction is correct. If there is no fixed direction, is there a difference between each?
There is no right or wrong, in my application if I put the bend towards the front it would hit the driveshaft when it flexed.
How are you going to eliminate the bump steer? Every time you pick up the truck the tires move. I can do it on mine so the whole chassis for cheap.
There is no bump steer with an axle mounted servo, only with chassis mounted servos with a panhard bar.
My chassis kit didn't come with the straight or s links. Are you meant to source your own?
If you ordered the injora kit for $53 it should have come with links, ball ends, chassis rails, spacers, battery strap, side plates and body post.
If not send it back and reorder another one, heres what you should get, amzn.to/3OEWA5t , the second picture shows the package list that shows all you get, or should get.
Did you ever get a length for the driveshafts?.... My cart is awaiting this info lol
they should be in tomorrow, I got them from Amazon, I ordered the FriHobby brand, 66-85mm front and 135-220mm rear. ill have the links if they are the right size in the description of the next video
Sweet can't wait to see what you used!!!!
I know Injora rolling complete chassie flexes like a brick. lol.. But this chassie looks a lot better, way better, and way cheaper. Good looking rig so far. Alright, everyone, have a great day and a great crawl.
Thanks
Ditch that hanging skid plate get a flat bottom delrin comp plate from Gs/TGh then you can run your links any way you want and more importantly you get better ground clearance
What is the measurement from the ground to the bottom of the chassis to call it a belly dragger? IMO that rig is a belly dragger.
Just playing around with different length shocks, droop and spring set up. It will take some testing to see where I leave it
what driveshaft did you get thinking i might build this kit
@@nandoscustomdiecast368 the parts should all be listed in the description of each video
This might be a stupid question but how did you mount your body posts?
the injora kit came with post mounts
Injora sells drive shafts for it on their website.
Yeah I saw that, thanks
What length drive shafts did you use for front and rear ? Can you share the part numbers please?
I used the Frihobby brand from Amazon,
amzn.to/3vlHyHk 135-220 rear
amzn.to/3VwdG5y 66-85 front
Cooool!
Thanks
That front pinion angle has to come back some servo should be level.
yeah, I know, I had the links so many different ways lol. its actually fixed since the video. But thanks for lookin out 😁
@@leesrcs yes sir thinking of ordering one of these kits myself
I think their worth the money I just don't like the front links
@@leesrcs yeah me neither i have some adjustable traxxas bandit links i might use those for the top links
What will be the wheelbase length?
Not sure, new flat skid on the way so I'll be changing everything and then I can let you know.
How did you get front oved or rear under drive?
Front has overdrive gear
Hey I have this kit, what driveshafts do you use for it?
I ordered the Frihobby brand from Amazon, they have a little slop in the joints but their cheap. The Amazon link is in the description as well as what length I ordered.
@@leesrcs thank you 👍
@@zackthomas1031 just make sure to measure what you need, I didn't use the Injora links from the kit up front
what shocks do you used, is it 100mm ? or 110mm or 120mm ?
So in this video I was using the 120mm shocks from the Amazon cage crawler, in the run video I just put out it was running 80mm but just sits too low, gonna try 100mm because I have a set, see which works out better.
Any updates on this build yet?
Yes, it's up and running, was waiting on body to come in. Hoping to get video this weekend
@leesrcs cool awesome to hear. I'm curious what driveshafts you used.
@@nate4024 I used Frihobby brand from Amazon, I measured the length I needed and they have several different length available, but fair warning they have a little play in the joints
@leesrcs I got mine running.. do you have a email id love to share and compare? Send you some pics. I used a set from Mt redcat everest I had laying around
@@nate4024 yes it's lees1.10garage@gmail.com
65mm front drive shaft , 200mm rear drive
I ordered a kit off Amazon and just replaced all the links up front because I didn't like the look or anything else for that matter out of the kit links and if u order another link kit u can use the rear links to add up top on the rear links so u can kick up the angle and still keep solidarity of the pumpkin
Also... Another thing that will help on your rear links , double bend upper and lower links
@@ericsmith3317 yeah I was thinking about double bends, worse case I "F" them up and order different links 😆
It’s a builders kit, from china. Anyways any of us builders have been buying kit driveshafts off eBay, china driveshafts suck bad. there’s even amazon cut to fit driveshafts on the cheap. Good video
thanks for watching, I'm always trying different brands.
Hi mate you rear drive shaft might be exposed if you align rear lower links like that.
Yes possibly, I have new links and driveshafts on order. Hoping to get it all worked out this week
뒤쪽 휘어진 로드를 반대로 장착해야 하는거 아닐까요?
I put the curved end to the back on mine but you can run it either direction, all depends on which skid plate you run, as long as nothing binds
재생각엔 구브러진쪽이 센터로 가면 배걸림이 덜할꺼같고 구부러진쪽이 리어료 가면 리어 타이어 접지가 더좋을꺼같은데 어떻게 생각하세요?
수신기 박스는 안들어있던데 어떻게 작업하셨나요?
I mounted it on the side plate
dang my first vid missed out
new giveaway coming up next video stay tuned
인조라 샤시는 엔듀로 빌더킷으로 조립되나요?
All my parts came from a previous build that was based on an scx10ii
휠베이스 길이를 313미리에서 330정도로 늘릴려면 어떻게하나요?
It depends on your links, you can order links that are longer or if you have enough threats on your current links just back off your ball ends a few turns each and see where that gets you.
Good to hear you are feeling better. Been wondering about this particular build as I have been wanting to build something similar for some time with those exact lcg chassis. Am curious as if you will find the right driveshafts. I watched the cage build and liked how it turned out. As I enjoy building more then competing, I may do one of those in the future myself.
Yes, feeling better thanks. Several people have commented that Injora sells the driveshafts also, I'll show which ones I went with and everything is used.
New sub 😂
Thanks
🙂🤩💥💯👍💪👏👏👏
I am really wanting to build me a lcg an on the cheap they are a lot of chassis on the market I got hurt about 4 years ago and I am now healed up but I am in a wheelchair an I am taking up RCs an building is going to be my hobby so hey my friend anything that can or would help me out because I am in this nursing home an can't get out to shop an don't have much of anything to pass off time Bobby Spencer 2966 slate Creek Rd Grundy Virginia 24614 because I can't get online alot so thank you for the great videos back to watching your videos
just buy a little at a time, thats what I do
Worst way to start a video! I am not even gonna watch it
@@idronecharpifpv89 cool, thanks for the comment and not watching 👍
Congrats Herman
