Default My SWX Rig

Bender SWX Chassis
Novak Goat esc w/ 17.5 14t pinion
ProLine Hammers
4 Link
Dual Servo Front Steering
O.D. Gears in front

This is my first crawler. When I bought it I had my doubts that I would remain interested in it. I did not know at the time the cult following that this hobby had, nor did I realise that going slow caould be this much fun! Needless to say my other cars must be feeling mistreated. I hardly touch them any more! Well here is the finished product! I decided not to go with a dig for the time being! Not to many places around the St.Louis ares to crawl, well that I know of anyway!

Just use a "Y" harness. 4-link plate. servos mount right up! Its easy to do. I messed the body up, Going to do another this weekend!

Since the tires turn independently, if one gets hung the other is free to move still, plus there is no linkage to get bound up on the rocks. It adds some extra weight to the front axel that isnt dead weight!
