So, I have to say that I'm new to this Scale Crawling hobby. Having said that, I am really impressed with some of the talent I see with these builds. So, here is my first 2.2 truck. I bought a Wraith used and completely dismantled it and realized that although the guy put some nice stuff in it, it was put together poorly. The first thing I had to do was make it a Jeep. Excuse the horrific paint job. Next it was time to start making it look more scale. The lights are in process but the axles are killer. Vanquish and RC4WD do amazing work.

Welcome...some really nice parts on the build, and I like the jeep body. Run with it and post up.

So, I took it out to test out my new axles. They are really nice.



And yes, I am a CO Crawler. Props to The Crawl Space for helping this Rookie out.

I got the driving lights wired up and mounted and I replaced my yellow fogs with brighter LED's...much better.
