So took My dingo out today and already think the left front shock is "blown" plus the ESC came off the tape. Also it stuters like twitches and I have tried adjusting the little deals on the tx. Goes away for a wee bit then in like the middle of drivin just stops till I go over and pick it up and then it's fine again. Any help? Could bein on an AB have to many HF signals? Somethin I am missin?

got the floor board figured out I beleive, Now just have to figure out the front end cause the trail ranger body leaves so much space in the front once ya take the molded bumper off.

So tweakin the suspension and have to break it in some as it sits a wee higher than I want it to. Plus I need to relocate the bumper up to mitigate some of the space between the grille and bumper. Tryin to get out all the air in the remote dampner is pain. Here's some pics though:
