Thanks for the input... not sure what other guys are doing to correct this issue with the vanquish kit or any chassi mount servo for that matter. A longer servo arm? Seems a longer arm would be weaker. I think there is room to move the steering link on top the knuckles I will just have to mess with it and see.

Well I got the wraith tore down. Ordered a servo winch mount, winch rope, rc4wd gold le hook, werty made bumper and some shackles. Also purchased a gt3c hacked with 6 channel receiver. I used the servo that came with the wraith to build my winch and its ready to go. Oh I also ordered full wraith interior along with my new driver Ceaser from planet of the apes. Going to get all this in this week then start my scx10 g6 build.

Well got the winch in, and manage to get all the wiring in the stock box but had to locate it in passenger seat because I have the dinky tray on the way. I will probably make a box from radio shack once i get the dinky tray and see what kind of room I have. I also had to locate esc behind seats for now. The winch works great for now. Im using blue winch rope I got from rpp and I used a rod end for a guide. My hook and fairlead is on the way. Starting my scx10 g6 build saturday. Stay tuned

My driver finally showed up for the wraith. Had to break his legs and used ca glue to reposition them.

Your mods look really good man. You would never know that was a rtr spawn. See if you can remount or hot glue your shotgun towards the inner side of the A pillar, that way when you side roll it will have less of a chance to separate from your driver. Check out your parts tree, there should be a spacer of some type you can use to raise just the drag link above the knuckle to get it parallel with the panhard bar. That will reduce bump steer quit a bit.

How are you liking that Werty made bumper? Are you happy with the design and finish? Im wanting to get a stinger front bumper but cant decide between the aluminum and or steel. If I get the steel it would be Werty, and or Scaler Fab. Obviously the aluminum would be from BGR.

I love the bumper and it accepts any rc4wd fairlead. Its extremely tough and the finish is great. Cant go wrong for the price.
