So I recently traded my TLR22 for an SCX10 which I then traded for a Poison Spyder RTR Wraith.. Here's a few pictures of the transformations seen over the past few weeks..

Here's what it looked like before the trade:




Some of the first mods were moving electronics around so I could get the battery upfront. Also did the fastback conversion immediately







The wraith also got Vanquish links and I cut the interior out of a couple of my old G6 SCX10 bodies.




I changed out the transmission gears out for Robinson Racing metal gears. Put in a Holmes Crawlmaster 13t brushed motor.

I also installed some steel driveshafts.

And went with a Holmes Torquemaster ESC

Decided to throw on a sway bar as well

Somewhere along the line I changed out the shocks as well.. I had a set of RC4WD Titanium shaft shocks

It just needed some more Vanquish parts.. Stage 1 kit and VVD's


Threw on a set of PitBull Rock Beasts



I had a hard time deciding the Jeep body to run

Last Jeep Rock Racer body before the custom chassis build started

Is there a benefit to doing the fast back mod other than looks?

They are the Vanquish Titanium links. It comes in a kit with uppers, lowers, and steering links. I think it was about $100.. My wheel base is 14" with these links

Well.. I haven't posted for a bit I see!! Here is what my Wraith looks like now! I'll try to catch up this thread..



I've built 3 custom chassis since I last posted (probably why I haven't posted because of all the hours building!)

Installed tuner tubes in both axles, and put the finishing touches on with the new VP wheels!
