Got i torn apart and noticed that my rear chubs keep coming loose from the housings causing plan in the chubs. The front are axial and have never come loose but the rear are strc or hot racing. Looks like its time to just time to order some vp axles.

I'd recommend going VP. Absolute perfection. Guaranteed. You'll love them.

Well I must admit I wave had everything to Finnish this thing but ambition. I hate wiring a buggy. Once it gets all the electronics in it gets so cluttered. I need to solder the bullets on the ESC and put a deans on the battery and its ready to test but its disassembled once again for a new chassis build. I'll get it going one day :rolleyes: I did get some color on it. Rustoleum ultra cover 2x paint absolutely the best spray paint I have ever used. That red is just one light coat. Its very bright paint that covers and cures nice.

you need to use some of the $$$ from one of those customer chassis builds and buy you a used wraith roller to use for building/mock up

These buggies are not user friendly for sure. Electronics are the sure #$@%er for sure.

Just show in off. Lol. Decided to build another one now that I have learned a little more and developed a few more tricks. I know, I suck but its all good I have been juggling the rcs and my real truck and its time to lift my blazer. Thanks for all the support and encouragement guys its has been and will continue to be fun.

Looney...I didn't get the post: "I suck" I would say everything to the contrary!
Maybe I missed something? If the comment is in regard to focusing on the 1:1...that's fine....but please don't sell yourself short on fab skills. This is a great rig, and you have some talent to pass around for sure. Greg
