I know it"s not a crawler but you guys have to have been around other stuff. so here is my idea, i want to make a scale looking trophy truck or pre-runner, to that I need a solid rear axel. so any input on that would be great also, I'm goin to make trailing arms and mount one coilover and take the spring off of another shock and make a bypass shock. so input on the shock geometry would also great.:)

thank you:lol:

not to hijack the thread, butim making a tlt prerunner with a tlt rear axle locked, t maxx trailing arms, t maxx threaded shocks and 3" of travel, the front will have rustler arms up front, in a center mount configuration, t maxx shocks, and hopefully 2" of travel. the chassis is 1/4 square stock cut to end behind the cab. from there it will be all tubes with 2 full size spares standing up side by side in the rear. a scale fuel cell hidin the esc and reciever. plus some other little scale tricks and tidbits. its been long i the making, but its going.

yeah im planning on mounting the shocks on the trailing arms to try to get more travel like a trophy truck. and i want to mount two spares and my shocks to the cage. ill probally cut the bed and tailgate off my body. the only problem is finding an axel to fit my independent running gear.

how would i get the gears out of the tranny and into the pumpkin, and if i do what type of driveshafts could i use. im thinking ill do the same thing with a twin force and just lower it enough to look scale.
