Default Class 3 TJ
Well i build this as a 1.9 and with all the cage weight and the hard body it seemed top heavy. I'm not a big fan of wheel spacer on a comp rig and i didn't have a class 3 so i did the next best thing , AR60'S and homemade panhard and misc. I still need a good motor 1 driveshaft , tierod and some misc to get it out on a test run. I'm taking any tips or advice on good class 3 build that you guys what to give out.

Here's a look at the chassis , I made the body flip up for easy access.
