Tonka Wrecker Conversion wheelbase Center adjustment piece.

cults3d

Enthusiasts love converting Tonka Trucks into RC trucks. This part would allow to adjust the wheelbase from the stock 230mm to any length you want(within reason of course). the part as it is was designed for adjusting the wheelbase of a Tonka Wrecker to 313mm which is a very common wheelbase. Knowing that the original wheelbase is 230mm you can print this part by shortening it front to back to make the wheelbase you need. So if you need lets say 287mm (RC4WD TF2 chassis) you would print this part at 57mm. 230 + 57 = 287mm. It requires you to drill out the metal parts but a template is included to be printed at 1mm or so thick Keep in mind this is only for the center piece. Any other pics are there for reference only. I do however have a complete 3D Tonka Wrecker (my rendition) for sale(very soon). keep checking my other items. Once its printed you will need to determine how long your screws need to be. with the current size for a 313mm wheelbase you would be good with 22x 20mm M3 screws and Nylon lock nuts. When using the template I would suggest securely clamping it into place and making sure it is well positioned before making your marks. Alternatively, you can make the screw hols a little bigger to have some wiggle room to adjust when installing it.
