I'd really appreciate it ! How does it look? Is it the long box or the short box?

Cool ! Send me pics when you get a chance. I'm kind of thinking of using that body style for my new SCX but want to see how it looks first.

Ok, now that looks cool! Do you have the Hand Brothers steering kit? Also how do you have your battery up front like that?

I made my own 3 link with a panhard bar.It would have been a lot easyer to buy a handsbros. I had alot of time in it. I used the stock Bat. tray milled it to fit.

Are you running the same battery for the truck and the winch? What battery are you using. Your set up is by far the closest to how I want to run mine! I hope you don't mind me picking your brain. I'm assuming I can use the same battery set up you've got if i get the Hand Brothers kit???? I'm all ready to buy it but want to make sure I can still run a front mounted battery before I do. I will be mounting my reciever box out back just like you did to look like a fuel tank... how did you mount yours back there? I heard somebody else cut out the center section and used the box mounts in reverse??

Thanks again !

Same battery and its just a plain old 6 cell. I have had a 7 cell in it out of my super but i'am going to go with a lipo 3S. As for the RX box I mounted it to my Alu. crossmember that I made for my bumper . You could use some delrin and that would work just fine. I don't think the box mounts will work . Its not that hard to come up with a mount for it.

You used Tamiya paint on a lexan body? I didn't think you could use anything but something like Pactra to spray on the inside so it would be more flexible???

Tamiya PS- 23 is for polycarbonate (lexan) Tamiya makes more than one kind of paint.
