Default Clod(Chevy) scaler, 2nd try(TA02)

I had previously used this body in a half build with TLT axles. Well I traded the TLT axles and stuff for a TA02. Just recently got around to doing something with it all. Not much but something. I decided to keep the stock clod wheelbase and extend the TA02 chassis since I wanted to gain some ground clearance anyway. So I cut up some cutting board, jigsaw worked best. And here is what I came up with. No steering yet, and the body is sitting on the tires, so it eventually won't be so lowrider-ish.

Yeah, but with the correct holes in the knuckles broke I tried using the next holes. That made it terribly toed out. So I didn't bother much, still waiting on tower to get knuckles in. I should probably go with aluminum knuckles, but this will be a slower trail rig and won't get too much bashing. It seemed to run fine after I figured out the Tamiya ESC. Never owned one and didn't know you disconnected the motor to set it up.

Still says late march on their site. It started mid Feb, then late Feb, then on order, then early March, mid March, and now late March. Don't tell me they had em but didn't say on their site. That would kinda piss me off, but not suprise me.

I was wondering if those would work. I thought the TA04 knuckles were the same as TLT. Here's the ones I've been watching. http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXGK83&P=Z I guess the red had me fooled. Cool, I'll order up a set and probably a ton of other goods. Thanks.
