Got it all together and swapped out the Savox servo for a Hitec so I could drop the BEC to 6V. Put in Beef Toobs in the front and Felsefest Lockers front and rear. On it's test run I discovered it is in 3 wheel drive. Must have not seated one of the axles quite square.








A couple statics

Had a productive lunch break. Mounted a set of GripFab Buckshots and RC4WD 2.2 IRoks up and put them on the Wraith. I will have to trim some more fender now.

Track width is 12.25"




I had 2.2 TSLs on it.



Comparisons

Ah, I was thinking of flipping them and doing the narrower offset.

If your not running a body (panels instead of the DC bodies) that would work. But with the bodies, the fenders are in the way.

They are, you have to peel them out of the plastic.

Your welcome, if it wasn't so muddy and wet out, I would have used my photo box and made them pretty, lol.

Wow... I can't get over how big they are. I'm curious to see how much damage they do out on the rocks/trails.

They are so big they dwarf the awesome wheels you made me. And I have to say, those are the easiest wheels to mount tires on I have ever seen. I mounted 12 X 2.2 tires today, the IRoks on the Buckshots, Boogers and Claws on Steelies. Talk about arthritis pain.

Ingenious wheel design but, I can't take credit for that. Although my wheels are different, someone else came up with that overall wheel design. I'm no engineer.. Just a guy that wanted to make some custom parts for his buddies
