Default Rons Wraith rebuild

To start off I'm new to crawling. Have been into R/C for three years. Short course SC-10. Was going to local tracks. Fun but to many pricks at the track. Then I saw the Wraith. Bought the kit, built it and love it. Found this awesome web site after the original build. Tore the wraith apart and with the help of people from this web site rebuilt it. This was my first build. Made some mistakes but learned a lot. Motor and ESC are Novak Wraith edition. (bought before I found this web site). But it works pretty good if you don't like speed! It's what my LHS recommended. Servo is a Hitec HS-7955TG. Thanks to everyone who answered my questions.

Topcad makes the front bumper. No there is no winch mount. The price is good and it comes with the top mounts that attach to the frame.

You should do a "how to" on the seat belts. They look nice

The seat belts are made out of shoestrings, cut down plastic triglides (the silver buckle part) and some 1/4 inch jewelry things from Hobby Lobby. Needle and thread.

Very cool and tough looking wraith. I like the screens on the rear upper sides, what did you use there?

The screens are cut out of two of these pencil holders from the dollar store.
