WesTX is right. Chassis showed up today. Along with a VP 5" light bar and a set of RC4x4 Performance Stainless Ultra 4 links.

Didn't want to stick with the wraith links?

Where did you get the axle stands? Been eyeing the CI Foam Block for a rig stand, but want some axle stands for mockups too.

Got the stands from a guy on Facebook. I'll look him up for you and let you know. He's from Texas. I have a CI Cell Block to. Awesome stand for sure. I am wanting to get another one.

Did a little work on this when I got home from work this morning. Swapped out the wraith links which made the wheel base 14 1/2 inches. Put the custom length links in and now the wheel base is 13". I like that much better.

The guy I got the stands from is Ric Mansanarez. He is in the San Antonio Crawlers group on Facebook.

The fuel cell is from Wertymade. He had someone 3D print some for him.
