This is my first crawler build, I'll be modeling it after my 1:1 crawler build (which is in progress). Why it's called reptar: Reptar - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum Last edited by THX_138; 09-09-2013 at 11:31 PM. |

Ha, the rc for sure. working In a hobby shop helps out with that. And I'm downtown, but we should get some meets going around alum rock! I'll be updating this as the build progresses. I have some losi shocks, fxr/45t combo, and some other little bits on the way. We should form the Alum Rock Crawlers! Last edited by THX_138; 09-09-2013 at 11:33 PM. |

Have some Mickey Thompson TTC Baja Claw tires coming but I had to see it on some tires. It comes in at a 13.3" wheelbase. Can anyone recommend some good wheel extensions? I want a little more width. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4 Last edited by THX_138; 09-09-2013 at 11:30 PM. |

Cut this body up for fun, I like the front but really hate what I did with the rear . It's also really nice not having a frame to hit my steering |

Finally got some time into this build. Took me a while but I figured out a way to mount a battery to the front fo this thing. May not look like it but It's rock solid What do you guys think? |

Absolutely loving this thing so far! Tires don't seem to bite all that well though. |

Looking good, I have found claws have better bite when run backwards
