Sagging Bulldog

Post by Alstone »

I have seen references to HL Bulldog tank sagging at the back end when fitted with metal gear boxes and tracks, mine did the same so this fix as cured it.

I made a nylon/plastic collar to fit around the last strut on each side this collar is 1/8â€

Wish you had posted this a couple of months ago. Fitting Panzer springs was an absolute pain..this would have taken two minutes. I have no idea why I didn't think of it myself, its standard practice on RC Rock Crawlers and Trucks...and I have had plenty! Doh!!
