Video – Tamiya Astute 2022 Build Part 2 | CompetitionX

Welcome back everyone to Part 2 of the Tamiya Astute 2022 online build.

In this video, we jump right into the build, moving to the front of the TD2 and assembling the steering, front suspension and front shocks. There are also a few good tips to be had during this part of the build.

We also work with our new CompetitionX Ball Cup Tool. We use it to build the front turnbuckles, front rocker arm links and the lower shock ball ends. You can find the link to our Shapeways store down in the Tools Used below!

Enjoy the video.
