Looking forward to this build. I love Wronchos. I just finished my build a month ago using the same chassis rails with a wraith skid.

Looks good. As far as the title I'm pretty sure you could do it on the cheap, I've seen Youtubers just bend up some links and run them on the OG 10 skid/frame. Depends on how nice/awesome/clean you want it to be. Some of the bends I've seen are sketchy lol.

I looked into doing this on my Deadbolt 10ii but decided it would be cheaper to buy a RTR wraith and slap a truck body on it haha. It adds up...but you are going to have a badass rig for sure.

You got me curious as to what my build cost, so here's the break down of my Cherokee Wroncho build

SCX10ii Cherokee RTR- $389
Vader Flat Skid - $20
Intheworks RC wraith high clearance brass link with extended rear links - $37.50
Scaler fab universal brackets - $15
Vanquish Axial Wraith Panhard Kit - $29
Vanquish ar60 dual shock/link mounts - $25
Beef tubes front/rear - $70
Beef tube Brass diff covers front/rear - $60
SSD metal trans gears - $28
Incision UD gears - $30
SSD knuckles - $25
Axial 8 hole 2.2 beadlock wheels - $20 off ebay
BP Custom RC beadlock rings - $30
Proline dual stage foam - $40
Proline 2.2 TSL Super swampers - $66
Holmes Hobbies 550 27t - $20
Amazon 110mm shocks - $22
Aluminum shock towers $20 off RCC
RC4WD Tough Armor Sliders - $33

Total is $979.50 …. well that escalated quickly! I was thinking $600 total, which I guess would be right since I already had the RTR around. This doesn't included the extra clear Cherokee body and paint.

A lot of those upgrades are not wroncho specific though. I guess I was thinking "to build a wroncho" shopping list when I read the title. Axles, skid, panhard, links would get er done right? And bigger tires of course.

With just the truck you're right. Add to you list, scaler fab brackets and use the stock scx10ii skid. you'll save $5 then put that towards a 550 can motor.

Kind of looks like an Arrma Outcast

Crawling out in the front yard. Really got this thing dialed in now. 2 speed transmission is awesome, just gotta remember to lower the drag brake so I don't flip over the front end

The truck is now 100% done! I added a rear license plate, rear sway bar, and relocated upper front shock mounts.
