Yeah I'm leaning heavily toward the Pits my buddy runs IROK's so I want something different. I'm up around that way every other week running a delivery route,one day I'm gonna take my wraith with me and take me a long lunch break lol.

definetly worth the stop, great rocks to crawl up and down the shoreline, from easy to impossible, if you park by the visitor center and go down the shore you will find some awesome spots, my new favorite climb is down there, it this tall ass steep rock climb, my buddies wraith almost made it, i made it twice, the second time landing on my friend hood

Wraith looks killer. Love the paint. Curious to see how it looks after some scraps. Wheels and tires look smoking too.

Nice vid. I'm still re-building my wraith and it's got new Pit Bulls on it. I'm itching to try them out.

Funny, does you buddy know you got him on video taking a leak, lol?

Well junfacs didn't work out. The rear was to short. Needs some around 6 inches for the rear driveshaft. Gonna have to look into something else.

Did you order the right ones? My friend runs them and they work real good. Their on my list of upgrades once the stockers go.

yeah they were the right ones, im not running it as a stock set up though, im using a built scx10 trans and my front links are shorter to keep everything behind the grill and not run a bumper and i make up for it with longer rear links, its setup right now with a 14 inch wheelbase. they will work great for stock or close to stock setups, i ended putting the on my JK build KJ's JK "Black Beast"

yeah, i think if i had the wraith trans i would have been ok, but it work jsut fine with wildboars so they will stay for awhile, if you ever get around nashville on saturdays a group of us go crawl almost every week, sign up on our site in my signature and you can see when we get together

trying to decide on wether to get the Pro4 3300 or the new 412 3100, cant make up my mind, i know the pro4 works great. But the 412 is supposed to be better at low speeds, guess im gonna sleep on it and order something in the morning

Well i went with the pro4, if it doesnt work out itll got in the trophy truck im building after I finish my Hilux. Went with the 3300 and 12/56 gearing. Should be plenty of power lol
gonna put the locker and motor in next week, might get a new blazer body(the cowl induction one) since its got big block power and Nitrous, it gonna need that extra room under the hood

got my pro4 installed today and this motor kicks ass, night and day difference from my 17.5ss. cleans the tires easily and crawls up anything with no power loss. Ive ordered a new driveshaft for the rear to get rid of the wildboars once and for all. its a mip shaft for a traxxas summit, should give me the 6 inch driveshaft i need. Also ordered another set of recaro seat since i stole the first set for another build
