well nobody seemed impressed w/ my mods, so i got out my dremel and my imagination. i used an sw2 skid as a starting point. i narrowed the stock chassis to 55mm w/ inboard lowers, longer rear uppers(i tried 4 link set-up but it didnt workout), and cut a big chunk of the chassis side out. also went to sportwerkes alum threaded shock bodys w/ the stock axial long shafts. ah yeah the monster stickers and blue beadlock rings made this thang look so much better.





heres the updated pics
