I've never really done a build thread and this really isn't going to be one either but I thought I'd just share what I've been working on for the last 2 weeks. This is my wraith cage on my scx10 chassis. It's basically a stock scx10 with 2.2 mudslingers on proline wheels. It's soon gonna have my Locked Up Rc wheels with CI foams. Just waiting for some hardware. I also have on order burly tubes, wraith chubs and knuckles, some xr10 unis and steel trans gears. I also posted some pics of the interior if anyone needs ideas for this. The wraith interior won't just drop in. What I did was use some spacers to raise it some then I trimmed out the center panel in the dash to fit around the center console thing. It sits higher but I think it still looks good. I also made a simple body hinge with a piece of the wraith chassis I cut out and some servo posts. If anyone has questions or needs help let me know. This has been a fun build so far.

Ok. I had to cut out my bumper mounts. Gotta get one mounted to the scx chassis.

RC Rock Armor makes a nicely designed Dagger Winch Bumper. Would actually increase the chassis' stiffness, as it mounts directly without the plastic mount.

Got the tool in the mail today for the locked up rc outer beadlock bolts so I got the wheels put on. Just waiting for my burly tubes, chubs and knuckles, xr10 unis and steel trans gears. Then install the electronics. Then bumper...new body? Maybe.

Wheels look great.

If you're looking for a custom bumper try tuner, Werty, or mcrawlinslow. They all do some killer custom chit for a good price.
