looks pretty good. i vote you raise those upper shock mounts and give yourself some up travel... keeping the same ride height

The tires will get into the body if it has any more up travel im pretty well maxed out on up travel but i thought the same thing and i think the ride height is perfect!:cool:

You know I wasn't really a fan of the wraiths with scx axils until our last get together here in Colorado Springs and I saw Abavusos set up and it actually provided a really scale look. I like it! What's the plans for the body? Options? |

Well ive narrowed it down to two paint schemes....both r,w,b.....one is the old distinctive baja bronco paint scheme...  And the other is off an old racing bronco..  Which one do you guys think? |

I like the second one also. Not a big fan of most 1.9 AX axle wraiths, but yours looks great.  Have you thought about doing the cage mod to the back half of the cage?
