Thanks! Go for it!

Today i had my worst build day in quite some time, i got a package from RPP with some goodies, i was about to turn down the shocks for the rear the same as i did with the fronts, i thought the shaft was steel but it was alu and i was a little to uncareful in the lathe and bent the shaft! :(

Then i was about to fit some traxxas plastic yokes onto the shafts and snapped 2 of them in 1 min!!!

Then i accidentally pushed the front bumper in a metal object and chips of paint fell off. I need powdercoat!!!!

Well after all this i went home, only thing i really got done was mounting the spare wheel, one rear shock and mount the R2 trans, its a tight fit but tight is good! :-P

Thx! Yea it sucked, but i think i have fixed the shock now, used a shaft from another shock that should fit with some mods to it.

Its a tight fit for sure, but it works!
