Re: 1/6 t34 project, here we go
Probably better to try a long lasting fix before it causes more damage and stresses the hull

Hell yeah, them tracks and running gear cost a small fortune, I totally agree, with the others, best to do it right the first time

Re: 1/6 t34 project, here we go
I found the problem, the rear axle is bent. Not sure if we did it or it was done before, as it never ran nicely ( was told they all sound bad)
So with a little help from my CNC and boy we have
Holes are tapped
And the top trial fitted, near perfect.
What I do need is a supplier for these as they are really hard to get out of the old chassis.

Not aerosol but https://acrylicosvallejo.com/en/product ... 4bo-70609/ at least comes in big bottles....
Re: 1/6 t34 project, here we go
They say Tamiya Green in the spray can is very close. It might be number 66, but I can't remember.

Blimey, that was quick!
Regarding the bushes, they're probably just ordinary bolts with the heads turned down and a hole drilled through the middle.

Chassis painted red oxide 3 coats
Motors and rear axle in, axle has been bolted to rear panel for additional strength as the last one bent. Bar is also 16mm now.
One side of track on and running nicely.
Will be doing the other side tonight so Maybe back on tracks and running for the weekend.
