Default Project....Man-O-War....Southern buggy build

Whats up guys...i have a nice chassis coming from msd44 and i have some serious ideas for this build...First off im going to spruce up the tubework with some extra bracing and what not. Im not going to be following the ar60 trend..i will have it running ax axles. It will run a novak brushless setup.. any suggestions would be much appreciated..this is my first buggy build..thanks for looking

You're right, the wraith axles are way too wide to be scale. Then again, ax axles on 2.2s are to me, too narrow. I've arrived at the conclusion that WK width is just about perfect. That either requires wideners or maybe vp hubs and wheels on the ax. Depending on the size of the chassis, you'll be able to see what looks right. Check out my screamin 2 build. You'll see some axle issues I ran into, and what I decided on.
