it looks as if keiths width is pretty close to the front i have. my width is very close to 17cm at the widest part on the knuckle, right before the hex. Also the tlt hex cant be used for this, i had to use a traxxas hex. if keith can manage to get the axle cut right here, that would equal track width of the front. or move in a little closer to the other tab thingy, it would be narrower in the rear by a tad.

got the front axle painted and dedenbaer stopped by to drop off theyre new knuckles for me! how nice of them!
i also did a kind of a tilt cab thing for better acess to the guts but it seems it may be more of a pita to keep this.
mounted the winch, what do you think about that placement, its pretty much the only place it will fot while being able to keep a battery.
did a little work on the bed as well, little hooks and i am gonna make some bungee cords or something. it might be ready to paint i dont know. i gotta do something about that damned battery, i am thinking i am gonna make a reviever pack work. do they have 3000 mah rx packs?

It is spelled like that because I had a 1990 Eagle Talon TSI about 10 years ago and have kept the same internet name since.

Your interior looks like it is going to turn out as good as the rest of the truck.

Hey Obi you need to throw that super heavy battery pack, hit up walmart ans grab two packs of four duracel or energizer AA size rechargeable batteries and make one stacked pack of six. Both brands rechargeables are 2650MAH and both are about $10 for 4. In my last rig one of these packs lasted me 2 hours and 15 minutes with a 55t integy and they are super lite and perfect for scalers.

i just got the chassis painted and its drying right now, it looks great. i painted the shocks and got the rear axle painted. im sort of at a standstill because i am waiting on some tlt stub axles, my shaved tlt stubs are too short for the rear. heres the pics of the chassis.
