Default Mad Skinz Wrexo Early Bronco

Now that Ive had some experience with building a few of these, I figured I'd turn my early Bronco Wraith into Wrexo.
It was the perfect combo for what I wanted to do. It had 4ws and was already built to the hilt as far as parts were concerned. PLus, it only had about 5 hours of runtime and everything was still basically new.
(Before)

It has gone thru a lot of changes and hours of fab. Plus several things needed to be changed, Ride Height, wheelbase, steering geometry, front EXO components, Slash MIP's, Grip fab Locker, wheels/tires, new radio system.

Thanks, I figured...
Im having one of our front stingers converted to fit and be mounted where the original bumper was but connect down on the lower skid w/a small bumper and plate in the front.
Heres my kids Wraith from what it will be based off.

That's awesome. Have anymore detailed pics of the build? Interested in how you got the MIP's on the front. What parts did you use? Would like to put them on my exo.

MIPS are fitted with Slash 4x4 ends and ax10 Inners. Theres a Grip Fab Locker and an added shaft inside. So, theres actually, 4 MIPS on this rig..

With the flex on the suspension and having more travel, it was a lil too soft for me.

So, we decided to stiffen up the front and make the shocks mount higher and outward. Nice drop too.

The shock mount will also connect to our stinger bumper which has to drop down to clear the body.

Rig turned out nice!! For some reason your front arms look different than mine?? Are they RPM Exo fronts?

Rpms....
I had to stick the shocks out front cause the lower cups are huge running Trx springs. The MIPs are just too big to squeeze these inside the A-arms

For the rear steering, I added a VP CMS Kit from the front and stuffed it up in the rear. Thru testing, Its done exactly as its told..
Axle, Chubs, Knucks, are all VP. HR spool, Under-drive, Axial XVD's, Vp steering links, Fast Eddy Bearings.
