sooo... haven't posted in a while. got all my electronics in and its a wire jungle with all the led wiring. I have my rx in a balloon and inside the radio box which is sealed with liquid tape. the led controller box, castle BEC, and winch controller are inside the radio shack project box which has been coated multiple times with liquid tape. It's a little messy with wires but don't even notice with body on. I wanted to be able to remove the body and work on truck without it being wired to chassis so I put the headlights on a plug as well as tail lights and light mode switch. so take off body and disconnect plugs between chassis and body and its free. also got my AWESOME r2jKustoms 4 link in today and on the truck. It is one fine crafted piece of work. the rear end moves so smooth now. I got basically the truck done except for working on scale details such as replacing winch line and buying/making scale accessories for bed. in the living room in the dark   tail lights (not on in pic sorry)  4 link kit came in. Nice stuff I HIGHLY reccomend   the radioshack box crammed FULL.  also my light setup does all sorts of crazy flashy things and I drilled out gas cap in rear and mounted light mode switch there. I like it and think it looks cool and easy access too  |

In my radio shack the project boxes are right by solder wire and speaker wire.

Excellent attention to details man, and cool writeup. How did you make those bungee cords?? The hook loops are sooo real.
