Default Built not bought scx10

My XJ as it sits:

Current setup includes:
Fxr
Solar d772
Team associated servo winch
Beef tubes
Aluminum knuckle c hubs and rear lockouts.
Axial cvd's
RR steel gears
Junfac rear driveline and integy front ( front junfac wouldn't fit the wheelbase)
All links made with traxxas rod ends, all thread an brake line
Heyok winch controller
Inner fenders made from dollar store Tupperware.



Most of the parts I made with Harris safety silv, stay silv flux, and a propane tank. It's easier than a lot of people think! Plastic peices were made from left over lexan and styrene.
Front bumper and tube fenders I made:


Rear bumper 1/2" square tube and 1/4" solid bar



Panhard setup 3/16" round bar silver soldered to 3m nuts:



Servo tray and battery mount: 1/8" aluminum


Lexan headlights from a jeep jk bumper piece(proline 3dr body) light bar made from led pen





Sliders 1/4" steel bar under tray is styrene:


Rear truss:



That's about it. If anyone has questions on how things were made feel free to pm me! Thanks for looking!

That thing is sick, you used propane to solder the bumper and rock rails? With silver solder?

Nice servo winch! I'll be adding that to my rig, once i get it haha. I put a servo winch in my Emaxx. Picks it off the ground no problems. Cheap Solar D772 servo too!

Im a big dys fan. Here is a frame set i built for a really broke friend. Cut the rails from a sheet of aluminum with an angle grinder. The rest is parts from an exceed crawler that i cut and modded.
