Holy crap, this thing went together really nicely!





Even did some blue rock lights for when I feel like showing off 👍🏻



Ended up right at 2 5/8" belly, really happy with the stance.



Might have to go drive it a bit and see if it has any electronic bugs......

Thanks guys! Got a chance to drive it for 10 minutes outside in the rain today.

Everything seems to work great! Might have to stiffen up the foams a bit....this thing is still pretty heavy. Just a tick under 10 lbs RTR



Playing in the rain.

It's crazy how much better it looks with the narrower tires on there.

Looks Awesome Tim! Really like what you did with the paint. Does it look like the rear steering set up is going to pan out, no pun intended.

Thanks guys! AJ, the chassis mounted rear servo seems to be fine. Steering in the rear does seem to effect the suspension (loading and unloading) a bit, but there isn't any bump steer.

Thought that was kinda fun.

Definitely dig it more with the new paint, stance and wheel/tire combo. I can't wait to see this out on the rocks.

Now if only VP would make some more XR width parts I'd be out there with y'all.

I'll call Steve and see what he can do.

Put medium foams in the front tonight. Also made a new steering rod, the old one was hitting the axle panhard mount. I think I get full steering now. I also only had 2 screws holding the 3rd member on the axle on the F9, and they were both loose. Oops! Gotta work the bugs out.....

I really regret the day I agreed to sell it, even more when I boxed it up.

But I know that it went where it belonged..

Promise though if for sale ever again, I get it back please.
