the wheels might be going away, i've got 2 sets of 1.9 mayhems now and one more set on the way. eventually it'll have rok lox or something on it. doubt i'll go up to 2.2s though.

i got a little more tube work done today, i think its done. gotta sandblast it now and get it painted then i'll need an interior, i measured up the inside of the cage and trimmed down proline CGR interior will fit just fine. added a rear bumper, nothing monumental but it'll work just fine. you can also see the rear D ring mount. |

WOOO!!! the scout got new wheels today! my black/silver Mayhem Engineering 'Trail Shooters' came in today. these are the best looking 1.9 wheel ive seen to date, and the quality is insane!! i mounted up a set of grooved 'irons on them for now til i close on my house and can afford new tires. thinking either 2faces or rok lox. yes i mounted them backwards, i wanted a narrower track width. |

I got the new shocks on and adjusted today. Went with losi 4" shocks. I know I gave up some scaleness for performance but bad shocks are a big pep peev (sp?) of mine. And after reading some opinions about the scale shocks out there and needing a 4" length I just went with what I knew would work. I also got a body in to cut the interior out of. I'll work on that tomorrow.
