Mowed the 4.13 acre Szczerba Ranch last night and sent an email to FreqEsKinz for help with a wrap or sticker setup late late last night.

Thanks for commenting guys!

Just a few more chassis details to finish up today, hopefully.

Add plates up under the sliders for more slidy action.
Add a kick up in front of the skid.
Notch skid for rod end clearances.
Strengthen up inside of body and make a tether to hold cab.

Thanks guys. Still alot of little things to do.

Ie, notch the skid for rod ends
Front skid extension
Bend a crossbar to clear the body mounts.


Ran a bead around the notches for some wear protection.

The rc4wd is pretty bullet proof even on brushless as long as the output shaft is the HD version. Not sure if they made it standard or not yet. I ran the stock one for a while and when I put the HD one in I noticed the stock was bent. Luckily I made the change before it broke. Buddy of mine has run his brushless for a long time on a 11lb rig.

Looks like mahogany. Not the hardwood I would use for a bearing, but what do I know.
