I had to see what it will look like so I slapped some axles on real quick and I'm going to have to make some custom uppers and lower links Also I'm still waiting on lockers before I tear down the axles to finish the beef toobs and put under drive gears in the rear This will probably be a long project |

Awesome rig, very nice parts and build. I usually read this forum every morning before work or sometimes if I have a few moments at work, on my work computer And because of the title of this thread I keep wanting to go to Taco Bell for lunch...  |

This is a great build thread! I'm subscribed. Love to watch for MG200' chassis builds whenever they come about. This is one of the crazier frames. Keep up the work and you'll get it done. Congrats on your baby boy. I'm still trying to figure out he's gong to explain to his teacher how he got the name boogiecash jr. lol. |

Alright I was able to get this beast rolling today made up some temporary link. I will be extending the rear about another 1/2 inch and extend the front another 1/4 inch. The tires are rubbing just a little when turned. Got the motor and trans figured out I'm running a 14tooth pinion and 56 spur think I may move up to a 15 tooth pinion depends on how much wheel speed I have Threw a body in there but this won't be the color of the body I will use. I'm still trying to come with a good color for it I'm open to any and all opinions so start throwing them my way Here's the pics |

Build is looking great I run a 14t and 56 spur also, you should have plenty of wheel speed, as long as your running 6s.
