Agreed, I was looking at all the holes and decided several of them would be great for body mounting via threaded standoffs...

Hey Brad, do any of the holes line up for servo mounts for a frame mounted servo?

Love,

BD

The shock towers are sold in pairs and will work front or rear.

I will post all the measurements once they are in production, but I will tell you, we mocked up tlt axles, axial axles, hi-lift/hilux axles and cr-01 axles all with 4 link and LEAFS, they ALL fit like a glove.

Bumpers are going to be sold as singles, front with winch holes and fairlead, rear with out, so you can put them on anything.

thanks for all the good words guys, this has been ALONG time coming, but we did our research and r/d so it should be the most universal scale chassis on the market.

What body are you going to use?
It's looking like the stock AX10 power wagon body right now. It fits the chassis and wheelbase perfectly.

Yup, you can get 4 shock towers like the front, or the set-up I have. I'll let Ben give out the dimensions if he wants them to be known right now.

EDIT: Ben beat me to it.

The front chassis standoff, and the standoff right behind the front bumper are on the same plane. So, making a frame mounted servo set-up shouldn't be too difficult.

Great job Ben and Bender!!! The chassis and bumpers were enough and then you had to go posting wheels, and the beadlock rings stacked up next to the tires, and your nuts and now I'm all worked up. I can't wait to see the plethora of scale goodness next week! WOO HOO!!!

Matt,

what WB do you need? the 10" can go down to 9-9.25" if need be w/o too much modification at all.
