How much are you lookin to spend? The Axial scorpion kit and X-Trail chassis is a great way to build a scale build This is built with just that and only cost around 250-280 for kit and chassis. |

Ya, the Tamiya CR-01 FJ40 is the only kit that is a scaler, the Hi-lifts are a bit different in design. Your best bet would be to buy an AX-10, get the TCS XTrail chassis and slap a nice body on it like the HPI Bronco or Rubicon. |

sorry to jock the thread... but. just ordered TCS X-Trail Scale Chassis for the Axial AX10 Scorpion but was wondering if my rig with this chassis would be more a 1.9 or a 2.2... and would scale shocks work with this or would it be best to stick with similar shocks. |

The x trail chassis is an easy build, and you will like the results. Works well for trail and climbing. |
