Are you using a wraith or scx10/ax10 trans? Im workin on gettin parts for mine. Got most everything.
Setting a honcho body on top of the bottom of a wraith, the wheelbase appears shorter than the wraith????
I don't think this truck will go into production, so don't hold your breath waiting for the press release.

I am using an SCX10 transmission. The wheelbase on the SCX10 is shorter, you will have to stretch the wheelbase for it to look right.

Very nice build.

I'd love to be able to compare the Wraith axles against the AXR-10 Frankenstein axles just to get some basic info on ground clearance, track width, ect.

Umm no I think it'll change. Going from 91mm links to over 106mm links and going from 90mm shocks too 120mm shocks, the geometry changes. It may stay the same due too the longer links and taller shocks but I was trying to see if anyone knows

I wouldn't mind goin 3 link but I don't have to tools to make my own setup. Do they sell a kit for it? If not I'm just gonna have to go with the 4 link setup

Not really sure on that one. The front and rear links are closer together on an SCX10, then on a Wraith.

Are you getting any bump steer with the panhard being that short?

But having two different lengths, it seems they would swing different arches, or radius, I think.
