My 2.2 Junkyard build.....
 

Wasnt sure where to put this, but since im using a Axial SCX10 chassis and a proline tube chassis for the AX10 figured i would try to put all this together somehow using.....the front and rear ends from a Tamiya TA02. Ive used these before in a couple of builds with failure so, i figured i would try this way. I plan on using an Axial trans bolted to a standard Axial skid plate with traxxas half shafts, pede shocks, and some other odds and ends. I plan on making some cross members to bolt the shock towers to mount everything to the chassis, then chopping off the chassis ends just for looks lol. So...on to the pics and enjoy!

That's going to be pretty cool. How well will those Tamiya front and rear ends hold up?

I tot this is a cool idea but just wondering if the Tamiya parts would hold up. What kind of motor will you be putting in?

Re: My 2.2 Junkyard build.....
 

Well Im thinking it wont be a hardcore crawler by any means because of the Tamiya parts, but im planning on putting a silver can motor on it for right now, since thats the only thing i got when it comes to any kind of motor, so im hoping that will take it easy on the drive train a little bit....before i put a 55 turn motor in it. If not, i`ll figure out something for the gears in the front and rear ends. But thanks for the kind words "thumbsup"
