I was wondering if anyone had an OL rear end case and steering blocks that they did not need any more. They can be cracked and or broken. I need the parts so I can figure out how to design the frame and suspension to my custom OL. I do not have an OL yet. Most of the parts I will use will more than likely be upgraded parts and I won’t use most of them, scratch that, all of the parts. After reading many threads about problems with the OL, hearing of the servos falling apart, escs shorting out and such has really pointed out the faults of the OL. Since the OL that I want is a crew cab dually Chevy, the only parts I would keep are the front steering blocks and the rear end. I will add oil shocks, upgrade the drive train, Bridgestone one-ton tires, and some custom aluminum wheels. The frame will be made of brass rectangular tubing, with four-link suspension arms. The electrics will be my micro Novak esc and the smallest Novak or Tekin made esc with reverse, and my old am Futaba radio. A micro-servo will control the steering. Since the truck will have about a 7” wheelbase, room should be no problem. If I am out of line for asking for old parts, let me know, and I won’t ask again. If anyone is about to toss the parts, I could use them. If you want them back, I can send them back after I model them in SolidWorks.
Your help would be great.
