I just changed the tie rod end from a short to long & I think it made all the difference! There may be some body trimming in the future!  Ripsaws vs Bashers   Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Looking good! I'm getting close to ready to hit the mud with mine. It's going to be a tough pull of the trigger!

May I make 1 suggestion? It might be better to move your tie rod to the top of your Knuckles and drag length on top of that. Less hanging down in the mud. Just my 2CW

Even though the foams will not be here till tomorrow, I mounted up the other 2 for pics.    It's funny, the CI block is almost to small for this rig.  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

That thing is a beast! You gotta do some more slow motion stuff when you run it again, that video was awesome! Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk |

Ok I have installed a Wraith rear sway bar. I was able to drill through my aluminum rear brace and use 2 small spacers to get a nice fit. It does help out tremendously with the body roll under acceleration. I will be doing more tuning over the weekend.    Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I received my closed cell foams today with a nice bonus, a fifth foam for a spare. Thanks for the freebie CI! I use these foams in all my rigs, they make a huge difference.  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I found a little mud today, keep in mind my servo is not waterproof, so I could not go crazy. I have a Savox on the way!    Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

How do you keep the TIRES so clean? And the truck so MUDDY? Sweet rig on top of that.... |

I ordered parts and they are starting to trickle in. I'm upgrading to 32 pitch gears on the spur & pinion. I also ordered Robinson racing one piece diff & idler gear. I'll have brushless power this Sunday.  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
