hi any advise on jagpanther upgrades?

[jumags]

hi its me again lol
my tiger late version is half way done

well ive just got a jp ir version
can i put metal road wheels on it from rc command?
if yes..how can i make the hull stronger? like the alu reinforcing bars
what else are the upgrades you know guys

[Mackem]

The main problem most people have with the HL Jagdpanther is very soft suspension. If you push the front of the tank down and it doesn't spring back by itself the suspension needs adjusting.
Drill a new locating hole for the suspension spring at the 9 o'clock position on the first and last road wheels that should cure it.

Cheers

PS: Personally I wouldn't bother with metal road wheels, metal gear boxes are a better option.

i fully agree

change the location of the springs to the 9 o clock possision and that solved my problem ..and yep with the gearbox ...

the only addition was the brass engine deck screens .. and then some time and plastic card ..

i would like to see one or two other parts like a conversion to an early jp so i can go mad and zimmerit

but takeing it by enlarge ! its a fine repo of the jp

but maybe i just can buy the stronger springs right?( i dont have a drill)

I have just fitted stronger springs to the 1st 2 and last 2 axles, and left the rest as they were. made one hell of a difference. it now sits more correctly and rides uneven ground far better. Along with these upgrades I also fitted adjustable rear idlers from Welsh Dragon' and the bracing bar which goes between them, metal tracks and idlers. really has made a big improvement, much heavier so rides better.

PS suggest not buy upgrades from Tankzone, nothing but problems with the bits I bought from them, some still not resolved. Buyer beware.
