|  Kicking off a Rpp Hobby Brute Build. As some may remember I bought the Brian's Bodies Auction Brute built by Vern Simons. I am finally getting some time to build it up. Just got all the metal work back from the powder coaters. On with the RPP Brute Build Ill try my best to add pictures and update as I go.       |

Looks really good in that blue, is that a all custom chassis? Coil shock setup looks great.

| Thanks for the reply's guys! It has been close to 2 years since I have done a quaility build all the way. Vern Simons work has inspired me to get back at it. Just getting the chassis's all dialed, body's are being primed and preppped. Hope to do final paint next weekend.  |

did you have to modify the hubs to fit on the axial axles.on mine i think i have to trim off the end of the axle about 1/8" and cut the hub down to about half in order to get it tight and for the hub to sit as close to the rim as possible,to make it look scale.other wise the hub sticks out past the rim.
