Default Spike's Ultimate Wraith Crawler build
I received a PM from a member here (reeve2007) about a week ago who had seen one of my other builds and asked if I'd build him the ultimate Wraith for his intended use. So after a few PM's back and forth bouncing ideas around we came up with a plan.
Yesterday I started receiving parts, here is what we have so far...

Vanquish goodies...



Steering duties...



The boingers...



I'm really jealous of this one!...




Stay tuned as packages are coming in every day!

Good choice in shocks and liking the memory foams. I'll be yanking the crawler innovations out of mine and putting in pro line memory foams

So what kind of build are we looking at here? Wraith? Tuber?

Whatever it is is starting out very baddass

It will be "mostly" a Wraith chassis.

I'm a big fan of waterproof grease, this stuff has worked great for me from RC cars to my dirt bikes.



I coat the bearings...



And R&P's...

I am no expert, but from vids and articles that seems a bit heavy on the grease.
