Man, puts a new term on "belly dragger"

I guess my question is, how well does it crawl compared to the original one. I hate floppy rigs so is it just like that or, am I wrong Not bashing your rig but it sure looks like an interesting vehicle to drive

Hey you've got a build thread (kinda)!

Have you had it out on the rocks yet? It'll hang up less than you think it will.

yea ive had it out it does good the biggest impovement so far is the sway bar i need to change the chassis a little more so i can run my 4 links bars a little better. it will be a fun project next week im going to order bta steering for it and look into getting some different wheels, it needs alot of weight up front

Search for "pirate clinger" and you'll find them.
