| Jeeper mods a Capra
I got to this thread as it is a little late, but I will be documenting the modification process of my Capra So far it is a fun little rig my biggest complaint was the manual, which was easily worked around. I ended up choosing ProLine Krawler tires, and for my electronics, I chose a hobbywing 1080, EcoPower WP110T servo, and spekrum radio system. First mods I had to do were more weight, aluminum panels, and aluminum wheels. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last edited by ThatJeeper2017; 10-24-2019 at 08:04 AM. |

First mods in store were some SSD Contenders I had on another truck, and some homemade aluminum panels. In the wheels I’ve got a nice row of sticky weights which improved the capability a ton. I knew I’d want to run a full droop setup, so I opted for the purple springs in the rear, and red in the front. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Looking real good. I see you are representing the RDC family, thought I was the only one that did that. |

I like the look too. Great job on those aluminum panels. What is the RDC family? |

First drivetrain mod to the Capra. Bought some incision steel universals for an SCX and they fit perfectly and sound a ton better Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Installed my Incision driveshafts...but, after installing, and then looking at your photos again, I realized I installed them in the opposite direction ("skinny" end on the transmission side, and "thick" end on the axle side. Will that make any difference? Should I reverse them? ~ More peace, love, laughter & kindness would make the world a MUCH better place |

I usually run them like this to prevent dirt and sand from getting trapped in them as easily. Either way if perfectly fine though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

That should work pretty well to keep the junk out of them too. Either way they’re super smooth. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
