Been doing some work on this rig and figured I'd do some updating: Switched to Axial axles. Mods are: Cvd's HD lockers HR knuckles and c hubs Axial aluminum rear straight lockers r2j 4 links mounts front and rear. Also Came with R2 tranny. Was missing dust cover and had a home made skid plate attached. I got the dust cover in today and switch to a RPP R2 skid plate.  Tore it down to just frame rails:  Sand blast time!!   It had a broken weld so it was time for me to bust out the torch (I love fire!  ). Weld is all fixed up and I got my fire fix for the day as well.  Got it primed and ready for base coat.  I still got a lot to do. The body is getting stripped and repainted also. I got a 7955 servo and a Holmes Hobby 35t hand-wound (both new) that I'm gonna drop in the rig. I am also switching to metal links and Integy piggyback shocks. More pics to come as soon as I make more progress. Thanks for looking James |

I got the bed and bumper painted and mounted:  Decided to make my own links this time. I used 1/4" brake line, 10/24" all thread, and Revo rod ends. I drilled and tapped the rod ends. I also sandblasted the brake line.    I hope to have it as a roller in the next few days. I might have to adjust the length of my links before it is all said and done. Sorry for the crappy pics. The lighting is horrible in my house. Thanks for looking James |
