Default Narrowed Jeep custom TTC rig

So I've had a set of VP axles for 2 years now and finally decided to finish this rig that keeps on getting put back on my shelf.

Specs
• SCX10 Rails modified for wraith trans skid
• New Bright jeep Narrowed
• Custom tube work
• VP axles with super 300's and RC4wd parts
• RC4WD 2.2 MT Baja Claws
• Crawler Inovations foams
• Mamba Max ESC and Tekin Pro 4 3300KV
• Super Shafty Transmission 6mm outputs
• Custom winch and steering plate
• 4 wheel steer with Dinky rc axle truss

I'll post pictures soon

Sounds interesting. I have an idea for a LARGE rig using AR60's and an SCX frame, so I might have to watch this.

So I chopped the front of the frame and added another back section. it fixed some clearance issues I was having steering, pan hard bar, etc.

Attaboy! The forum loves pictures! We know you're going to bring it...but bringing it with pictures first is best! Subscribed!

Nice clean chop on the body!

Thanks! I totally agree the sad thing is that I was going to but photobucket changed (it's been a while) and I couldn't post the pictures correctly. I'm good to go now!
