I have not even installed drive shafts yet. I need to install the Pede tranny first, then I will know how long they need to be.

Finally finished by Mountaineer!
I added:

Pede Tranny, shortened txt drive shafts with bruiser u-joints, Lathe motor, Rooster ESC, Futaba micro 3ch RX, custom associated battery tray.

On to the pics.

Layed down Pede tranny with a Lathe motor.




Using my custom saddle pack from my TXT.










3" of center clearance.










The truck did way better then I anticipated. It does not flex alot but it is pretty stable.

Thanks guys! Here is a video of today's test run. I hope it gives you an idea of how fun this truck is to drive. EVERYONE should have a scale crawler!

Right click and "Save As"

Cool video, looks like an awsome crawling spot as well.

I was over building a scale crawler, thanks a lot!

I don't know how many times I have to tell you... Savage shocks and 40's don't belong on a scale crawler!

Why would anybody sell a Bruiser body for $400.00 when you are just going to go crawling with it?

I can't wait to do an exo cage for it!

thats a NIB body, im sure the one hes using has been around the block a few times. if i picked up a new one for a decent price (not 400$) id beat the crap out of it too.
