Thanks!

I had nothing to do so i brazed up some upper link mounts, these will also be the place for the coils to rest on, maybe will have to make some changes later, will see when chassis arrive.
Upper/lower spring retrainers will be made in my lathe later on.

The tire carrier latch is so sweet. I think the roof rack looks good on it. (Then again my 1:1 is getting one installed as we speak)

Thx! I think no roof rack, atleast not the one in the previous pics.

I finally got my chassi rails from morten at Midgard factory (thx again morten)...and wow these rails was exactly cut the way i wanted!

I had to do the bends myself so with some help from a friend i got the bends done just perfect.

This chassie fits great on the JK body and i got pretty much all figured out.

Heres pics of the mockup and servo mount i did today, chassie will be black later of course.

Chassis laying on axles.











Servo mount, there will be a radiator behind the grill covering the servo.









Chassie layout, skidplate will serve as crossmember in the middle.




Here is pretty much how it will sit, i think its spot on!

Those wheels are Create a crawler wheels, his a vendor on here, send him a pm and he will help you out, great guy to deal with!

A little update, i forgot the real camera at home so i used my cell phone, i got the links mounted and its a perfect fit, i will make new lower links, to look more scale with some rc4wd scale rod ends.

Front bumper mounted to chassis.

Also brazed and mounted the sliders today, got a lil more work on them still.
