Default New FJ Build

Yea yea, typical XC Fj I know.
Intro.
With the meet coming up in April, I need to get the XC ready. So yesterday I got a list of things I needed to get it running. That list included a new body. After talking with my dad and explaining to him that it would cost more to use a lexan body because I would need to extend the rear (I was going to use the Defender) he agreed to get the FJ off of Hobbypeople. That wasnt all I needed. We went back to tower, and I got a Speed control (Teu-101bk because my Teu was messed up, and I reall like this esc), Highlift rims for my BFG's, and some body post I probally wont use. I'll end up using velcro.

The plans. Trying to make my Fj look as scale as possible. The roof rack will include a sleeping back (as seen below), and functional towstrap (seen below, and yes it's red, but thats all I had), A toolbox made out of a servo case, and some various tools to dig the truck out of trouble. I havent decided if I want to use a spare tire somewhere on the truck. Probally not, but I'll see when the body gets here.

The pictures:

Chassis


The manditory flex shot





Electronics layout (will change with new ESC)



Suspension droop.



were the trucks shocks sit on the ground



Overall Accesorys





Hand tools+sleeping bag



Tow strap.



The suspension is pretty much run off of the droop, but if it works good right?

Comments+Critics welcome. ^_^
