|  my jeep cherokee build!
i wasnt planning on starting a build thread BUT LR3 forced me to  she started life as a honcho kit, but before i could even paint the stock body, i bought a jeep cherokee body the only thing i have really done on it so far is links, and CMS steering, which i did completely custom         and the needed flex shot   the 3 link mount in the front is just temporary to get her going i still plan on doing alot to it! im thinking of getting either Mickey Thompson Baja Claws, or RC4WD 2 Face tires. im probably going to make bumpers for it using copper so that i can just solder the joints with a propane torch  let me know what you think!! |

How does a panhard bar not bind up when using a 3 link? or anything other than a 2 link? I can't wrap my head around it.

wow, most people build scale rigs to match their 1:1 rig, not build a scaler and then buy a 1:1 to match looks good man! how does the DIY panhard bar setup work out for you? |

Haha I know right!! It is actually completaly quencidental I'm going to paint the fender flares on the 1:1 black to match the scaler though Thank you! it works PERFECT! I got no bump steer and no binding in any of the steering links! I would say it works jut as good as a hand bros setup. | |

Awesome work on the steering. And I dig the white xj. A true rc crawler bases his 1:1 rig off his scaler ha ha. I like it!
