Dunno man...that's the best looking rig I've ever seen you drive.
All the credit goes to BC Paints for that body. He does good work.

I noticed the H9 was kinda flimsy when putting it on. I still have the other GH Racing AL arm too. I'll be practicing over the next few weeks, so we'll see how it holds up.

I have ran a H9 arm on my pro rig for the last 5 months, and another on my spo for the last 3 months, and have never had any terrible bending issues. For their size and price I like them

Ive stripped the splines on 3 of those hanger 9's, only bent one a bit. Make sure the clamping screws dont work loose.

Good to know. I am trying it cause of the slightly longer length.

Does look good.

I have gotten a few packs on my rock pile the last few days. Rig is super stable for the most part.
I am running the VP base knuckle weights up front and they may be too much weight. I'll have a fix for that soon enough.
I haven't limited the SCX shocks yet. I will need to limit the shocks out back 5-10mm or use some firmer springs out back. I set the upperlinks during the mock up stage and havent moved them yet. I plan on getting down and dirty with the tuning this week.
Run one line, change something. Run it again, change something, repeat 20-25 times.

I gave you guys some extra screws because I haven't done any durability testing on that Ti hardware. You have 8 screws on the scale.

I dont know what I was thinking putting all 8 up on the scale.
Only 4 are required. I would have figured it out when I went to install them.

Nah, i dont hide anything. No reason to! Look on the inside of tires and you'll see my foam combos magic markered on there. Lol.



Ti Locker install.



1.6years of wear on the rear RC4WD Wheely King shafts.
Hard to tell from pictures but there is pretty much minimal signs of wear.
