Johnnymoon's Bomber Thread

[MoonyJohn]

Hey everyone, coming back into the crawler scene. Was into it a while back with my wraith, and recently decided to get back into it. Picked up a bomber RTR, just for my impatience of getting a build started. Anyways, lets get to it!



My goals for this machine is to be a capable crawler. On my wraith i cant remember all the parts exactly, but it did very well for how I built it. Now realizing how much money I put into it, Im bummed I dont have it anymore . So far I dont have any mods done to it. Ive bought some 2.2 mickey thompsons. Ive got a 2c lipo, and on order are some vanquish link kits minus the radius arms, and some rclions new beadlocks with hub wheel weights.



Ill post as I go with pictures ofcourse. Heres some to get started.

Will not crawl worth beans without a rear sway bar and the lower rear control arms limit your clearance and high center on everything. The Wraith is a much better "crawler" than the Bomber.

Looking forward to seeing the build! I have one that is next in my project list, still in pieces.

Won't crawl worth poo with the trailing arms and long skid. There are several capable "Bombers" out there though running conventional rear links and a Wraith skid. More of a Wromber, I suppose.
