Can't wait to see this thing in action. Chassis design is awesome.

More hardware came in.



I've been sick the past few days, and still getting over it, so I haven't done anything other than open packages, haha.

I did preorder a set of Proline's newly released 2.2 FaultLine Yeti wheels for this though.

Damn dude.. There's some great 650 to 700 piece hardware kits out there for less than $40 shipped. I don't even pick up hardware that I drop.

Yeah, been meaning to pick one of those up. I've just been getting stuff as I need it. Most of that last pic I'm sure is not in those kits though. Thin Nyloc nuts, 40mm long M3 screw (for the winch) 20mm set screws, and the steel flanged balls for the XR10 rod ends

True. The skinny nuts are freaking sweet. I use them on all my shock/ link mounts.

Suspension link mounts made. Template drawn out and cut from posterboard, then cut from 16ga steel.

I'll be making trays for the batteries that will nestle into these

You gonna have it ready for the next snowcrawl at Phil's? Coming together very nicely.

I hope to have it as a roller by then. Next weekend I may be out of town, so I won't be able to work on it.

Yep, the new 2.2 Faultline from Proline uses SLW hubs, it does not come with any hubs though. The one bolted up is a spare from my Yeti

Just ordered mine last night for my yeti. Hope they hold up to the abuse.

As long as the beadlock screws aren't stripped from the factory they should hold up for a season or two.

each wheel only comes with 2 of those screws installed, so just be careful when putting them together and they'll be fine

Pulled the tape out to help plan out the tube work of the "roof"

Battery boxes for the bouncer made, and got one of the link mounts re-clearanced for it.

Got another set of Proline TSL's in today, since the first set got donated to my Yeti, since they were on the stock wheels (that was not a fun mounting job)

I got the new TSL's on the new Faultlines, and got another set of stock Yeti hex hubs so I could have 4 of the shorter hubs. And made sure the orange dot was on the inside this time on all 4.
