Default BigJon's Sportsman

I have been slowly piecing together the supplies to build a 2.2s. What I have so far is a Evil Ringer chassis, transmission and axles of a SCX10, Plastic Wraith chub's, wild boar drive shafts, receiver, servo, esc, and motor.

Thanks to ittybitty over at ECRCHobbies I have the following on the way
Ax30450 Axial Flange Pipe 3x4.5x5.5
Ax30563 Axial Front Universal Set XR10
Ax80064 Axial Straight Axle Adapter Set XR10
Ax30090 Axial 61-90mm Aluminum Shock Set 7mm Piston
Ax30402 Axial Heavy Duty Bevel Gear Set - 43T/13T
Ax30401 Axial Heavy Duty Bevel Gear Set - 36T/14T
Vanquish Wraith, Ridgecrest, Aluminum Knuckles
Vanquish Locker for Axial Vehicles
Vanquish AX10 / SCX10 Shock Mount Razors

I have ordered Wraith Knuckle weight holders and an assortment of weights From RCBros. Also got two sets of wide splined Delrin tubes from Creation Fab.

I believe I have everything I need except for a body. Need to figure out what direction I want to go in.

I will get what little pics I have up soon.

I also ordered a set of custom Ti rear shafts from CREEPERBOB to fill my rear housing.

A package was waiting for me on Friday. Wish I got my tubes as well but Chris is running a batch through so I should have them the beginning of next week.

I received these from Chris yesterday. Guess I need to strip down my axles and start trimming. Also need to get with Ryan and get my order in.

Those bind on the drive shaft. I took the links off my UGC Viper that did not sell and those look like they work and they should be the same length. I need to check my WB. Was think ing about using the front links of the ugc with a trimmed down jato rod end to get the length right but I think that would be to low.

I was planning on grabbing it when I go over there. Also to I was going to bounce some ideas off you about electronics placement think It will work but I may need some heatshrink. Think I want it below the electronics plate between that and the drive shaft. Just don't know where can put the receiver. With the bat on top I am quickly running outa space.
