That would be great, I'll pay for the shipping. The dimensions are perfect for the fuel cell. I'll try my hand at the highlift jack.

Racing fuel cell rough dimensions

How tall does the air filter need to be? and how are you planning on attaching it?


Are those the dimensions of that fuel cell (doesn't look it) ... or the one you want for your truck?

The fuel cell dimension of yours are perfect, don't worry about mine.

The air filter i was thinking of is made out of foam, because it is covering the fan of the ESC. So i'm not too sure of the mounting method yet.

Plans for the building of the highlift jack:

I'll be able to build this jack, just not too sure about the paint.

Thought of mounting the filter something like this:

Can't see the plan without registering & logging in

That could work ... sort of a foam top hat

I have some scrim foam I can try - I gues the height of the filter is 10-12mm?

I'll send you the plan, PM me your email.

Another thing I was thinking of is a scale looking radiator and fan. Some of the truggies i've seen have a radiator somewhere in the cage at the back. I was thinking of using a small computer fan and making it spin. And piping it down the cage and to the front.

Anyway, just a thought. My mind runs away from me at times...

Making it "functional" - i.e. fairly free flowing would complicate it, but it's doable, if rather fiddly ... I'm thinking a "front" & a "back" of lots of 2-3mm wide strips of 1.5mm sheet, spaced out by 1.5mm at the ends, sandwiching a bit of fine mesh, box in the top/bottom/ends, fake a cap & hose attachments, spray the whole thing sating black ... It's the kind of thing I'd have to "design" as I go - let me know some height/width dimensions if you want me to try


Ps the jack looks good

Just been looking at fans - they're less than
