Have some drive shafts coming soon. Interior as well. I am working on making my own seats.

I have to get some mounting hardware for the links where they attach to the center skid.

Best investment I ever made was an RCScrewz screw set. You wont regret it!

Well I got the drive shafts in. But since this is a SCX-10 transmission in a wraith, I may be looking to Super Shafty for some extended outputs.

I was also thinking about cutting off the end of a male/splined shaft and have a female end on both the axle and the transmission with the male shaft floating between the female ends.

For the cost if 1 extended output you can get a brand new wraith transmission.

Dig your build man. I just got a project like yours done , I used the proline bronco body . With those scx axels it looks more scale. I really like it. Keep up the good work man, looks great

Got some time to work on the WW 1.9 today.

Servo mount located and installed. Savöx 1231SG Servo mounted. (Servo arm is at the post office)

Interior and Drivers seat mounted (I used the passenger seat from the O.P.A.T Wraith for now.) I will be making my own seats soon.

Electronics package is working.
