Wow, lot of steel work in there, is she pretty hefty? Love that swing out spare tire carrier. The whole rig looks great! |

7.8lbs. When I had the honcho body and a few steel thingy's I was at 6.8lbs. The little bit of driving thus far doesn't seem affected to much. In fact it seems alittle more stable in some ways. My weight also seems fairly centered front to back. I haven't figured if it's too top heavy yet. But I'm not to concerned. i was basically going for looks right now anyhow. There's no real comp scene here where I live. I'm just out for fun and the creative aspects.

Headlights are the honcho kit's. No real thinking in it. I thought it was cool they fit right in. Not sure if I like the grey. I'm scheming and planning the grill and lights for something unique. And possibly a better front bumper too. It's all just a work in progress. I'm learnin. Fun fun. Thanks guys.

| Homespun CMS
It took me a bit but I did my own custom cms. It works, no bump steer. Articulation seems real good and I even think everything moves more smoothly. Bad thing is I broke my sensor wires for the motor now I gotta splice them to a new connector.      |
