Convert your regular axles to XR10 universals. You'll have add XR chubs/knuckles and some more fab to make the axles fit. Bam! More steering angle! | |

| Re: Tuna Tunnel Take Three... Haha no worries! No I won't paint my trucks pink (I really don't like the color). The only reason my XR10 comp rig is pink is because it was an oopsy when dying red. Plus it goes well with my blue/pink skins. All my other rigs are far from PINK! |

Nice! I was wondering when this rig was going to surface again. I got to see this in Montana last year, Ty did a great job on it. Interested to see if you mod it or just drive it....it's so nice as is. And please don't call a 7lb rig fat,it's 2lbs lighter than any of my scalers |
