Yeah I don't know if I will even run a winch on this rig. If I do it will probably be a servo winch.

Rear bumper is even more simple than up front...

Not feeling good today.

Remade the front bumper, this one is square, unlike the last.

Getting back into building, and crawling. Putting the roc 412 and RX-8 into my 650, and this is getting a stock axial 27t and brxl on 3s. I have a ton of 3s batteries since I started flying. Currently only my wife's trucks are running :( .

I spent some time today, and got everything together, so the F150 is ready for her first run. Probably going to be next week. In other news I picked up Rc4wd chrome wagon wheels in 5 lug pattern and ordered their new Goodyear Wrangler Mtr, in the 4.19 flavor. to make this a true Class one rig.

She is repaired, just a plastic c hub I had in spare parts. I also ordered the SSD, steering combo, For $70 it seems a good value.

I mashed the bumper, at the same time I broke the c hub, I bent it back into place, but that got me thinking about changing them. I will probably be knowing up a winch bumper out in the near future.

Made the front cross member and decided on radius arms for the front.

where did you get the radius arms, or did you make them?

I made these myself, and painted with model masters enamel.

This trail was tough on the rig, I bent the front bumper so bad it folded into the tire. I also lost front drive a couple time due to the set screws backing out. The trans is one of the old school ones with the aluminum out drives.

Pics of the carnage in the morning...
