I bet you do get little attached to them. Thanks again Shon!

I have no doubt that the axles will hold up.

I have no idea what motor/esc to go with. I don't want a super crazy fast system. I also want my batterys to last.

I'm excited to see this rig finished Eric. Let me know when you are ready to sell it to me.

Rig looks super cool, very TTC to me . I wonder how well the g made axles will hold up to a Top Truck course. I guess you soon will see.




Wait to you see this truck once it get home. Shon work is just top notch.

Those axles look monstrously wide! How much wider are they than Axials?

I'm not too worried about the axles breaking. I keep hearing that they are holding up fine.

I do plan on getting new bearings and gunnar pins. Later on I will figure out CVD's for it.

I seen Shon work in person it is top notch. I understand why he stays soo busy.

Check out the first page I have pictures with measurements.

I found with the summit trans and axial axles it super easy for it to roll over. This won't the case now. Fitting thur gates that another.

You know I have put my cherokee next to a bunch axial 1.9's and I am only around a 1/4" wider. most of them end up running wider offset wheels to help with stability. I went with negative offset to narrow it up.. so in my case I am real close. with yours being 2.2 I think it should be a big help.

Think I'm going TTC Bronco, started one a while back but ended up parting it out to other rigs before finishing it..

Not sure if it will be 1.9 or 2.2 yet, guess we'll see when it starts going together..

I am really really surprised no one has done this yet.. the new bright is a perfect fit and I am sure the proline 4 door would be perfect to.. I hope someone does it soon if not I am gonna spend another 100 bucks
