Just cruised through this thread, great looking rig. I'm just started on one of these NB TJ bodies myself. Thanks for some inspiration.

Thanks! They have lots of possibilities. So many ways to build them!

Yeah, I'd love to run the drivetrain with the GCM transfer case like you have, but I have a couple spare SCX10 transmissions that I'm gonna try using as transfer case setups.

I changed the rear upper link mounts at the frame a bit to experiment some. And in doing that it severely limited my battery choices, I am not pretty much stuck with running the batteries I use. Currently I'm running 1300 3S 40C sky lipos and they are working great, and giving me about 45 minutes of run time if I'm giving it hell some.

Here are some updated pictures with the body off.

test fit the cage from another TJ I'm building into Guzzy. I like the lower profile of this one, May be building a new cage for Guzzy soon.

Had the day off today, so I spent the morning putting in my Grip Fab locker and building a yeti cooler for our comp this weekend. The theme is "River Runner", so I figured who doesn't go to the river with a cooler full of drinks!
