Final product other than shocks or body swap most everything is on here!!!

Right now it has the big bore comp shocks but am going to test with the element shocks I had intended to use on this rig and as soon as it warms up paint a new body.....

Its weighing in at 8.4 lbs and I want to trim some weight off.....

Any suggestions??????

Also the panhard bar is a bit of a stumper on this rig it is not the same size as the steering link but can't find a definitive measurement eye to eye on the SCX10 iii Panhard bar??????

But will see after I test her out if this winter storm hurries up and goes..... BUZZZZ....

Buzzz Crawlers.......
This project is finally done and ready for a comprehensive crawl test after this winter storm goes away and then I can see if the Panhard is set properly and if the In The Works RC shocks have too much droop and may change to original idea of element shocks and may remove the brass diff covers the Rig is weighing a little over 8 lbs see pics!!!

I did do a nice 30 min test run 2 weeks back to check anything in the motor or trans and it performed great and sounded good except for the panhard bar and steering and shocks!!

Got the Steering Links situation fixed and the Panhard Bar almost fixed and the shocks im still playing with and I figure im trying to get the shocks mounted too far from the options on the shock tower mount and that's why im not getting the right mix of travel and droop I like which is about 50/50 give or take on the Rig...

Also i need to Shim the Differentials and Driveshafts and Portal Stub Axles but everything else looks and sounds good so far!!!!!

Any suggestions comments ideas??

Please BUZZZZZ........

BUZZZZZ..... Crawlers...... Here is my backyard crawler testing course with some Colorado river rocks very slippery and great for testing my new builds before going out for a real crawl! The rig did great today even though im going back to my Hyrax tires it had great torque and stability.... BUZZZZ......
