Default Crax

I just couldn't make up my mind on a Tough Truck build... Until I scored a few more parts.

Introducing the CRAX

The chassis, basic suspension and trans are from a CR-01 and the axles are AX-10 axles, therefore what else should I call it.... CR-AX or CRAX. Fitting the spring mounts to the AX axles was easy, they fit right onto the axle with just a little grinding of the bottom mount, the rest went together easy. I scored these new 2.2 soft MudSlingers and salvaged a dust collector cab. It is going to be a stubby little truck but it will be a beast.

A little more done

A 19T motor mounted to the CR trans gives this plenty of wheel speed, I have a 12T Titan waiting, but I want to see how the 19T does first. I have a waterproof servo and electonics box so this will not be afraid to get muddy.

Next I need to figure out what to do with the bed section

Default Looks good

I would just make a small cage with small bed that you can put stuff on. Would love to see some tools, tool boxes, the like. Just an idea.
