Default Mancave's 2012 Rubicon rebuild

So I've had this rig for a while and it's sat for the most part, well not anymore. My d44 scx parts in converted them and all my other parts came in as well: Rc4wd cms with panhard kit, tough armor front lightbar v2, lightforce 240 XGT kit, 3mm bright white LED system, diamond plate fender covers, and x2ss 1.9 compass tires to go onto my Mickey Thompson classic locks. Let the tear down and rebuild begin!

Been at it for a little while had to replace the output shaft on my ax2 (lawndarted my Mattzilla bouncer and snapped the front output) after a good cleaning and greasing with losi high pressure black grease (excellent grease) popped a strong enough servo in it to shift it and for now, dropped the axles cms and bumper/ lights in.

They are indeed, very well thought out and machined. I've had curries and now the d44s and hands down I'd buy another set of these in a heartbeat

Not quite done yet, needed more lights so on went a 4" Rc4wd light bar on top of the hood and I still need to punch the holes for the roof and wire in a brushed combo so I can actually crawl more with it
