Here's a teaser of one I'm building for my self. Just set it on top of the Wraith, but you get the idea.


I built this chassis a couple of years ago for a local guy then he sold it last year. It popped up again with someone PM'ing me to see if I had built it, which I told him I did. Then a month or so passes I see it in the for sale section, well I knew I had to buy it and bring it home.

idont think stronger, just scale looking, turning radius , and look like full width, all most of my 1/1 builds had full width axles, so it only seemed like the right thing to do lol

o and got the f/r winches on

[arrowbee]

I got a locked up trail ready bead locks that r a 8 hole wheel that patrick is hooking me up with, and I'm debating on what tires, boggers that will be grooved, all of the small lugs will be cut out, or rip saw,i got both but not sure, I'm leaning towards boggers,i like to run different tires on all of my rigs the pit bulls work awesome but I've ran them for awhile now, time for something new, the new trinity 21.5 motor is amazing,i love those motors, smooth fast, just all around awesome with the mamba max pro esc, I've been trying to find scale propane tanks and air tank, so of anyone knows let me know please
