I highly suggest replacing the pins in the rc4wd cvds with cut down drill bits. Easy to do while your there.

lockouts can be mounted screws top/bottom or in from the sides..




strc diff cover..not to shure about the green,i was hoping it would have been a bit brighter..

Sand them down a little, paint them the same color as the truck and when they get scratched up they'll still be green

Doing! Those look sweet. The diff cover would look sweet blasted then repainted grabberer green crane style



This is currently my favorite wraith build yet. I think the 1:1 is my favorite southern buggy and the work Trenton put into the frame is awesome. Keep it up I cant wait to see this take shape

Sweet looking parts. Nothing like getting a couple of boxes full of stuff. I'll be interested in what you think about those housings... Now I want some.

Can't wait to see this thing as a roller.

Oooo.. Name change and super bling!

I would check out my JK thread for sanding down those boggers. They are sir-bounce-alots.

Looks good man love them boggers. Is that buggy made of tubbing or solid rod?

Its almost as if someone shrunk the riddler by coleworks. Nice job with the tires, I was thinking about doing the same thing, glad to see it looks awesome!
