Default My first wraith!
Picked up a ROUGH wraith the other day. This thing was drove hard and put up wet "literally" lol paid $150 for it which I thought was pretty good. In hindsight prob would have been better just building one from scratch. Got a bunch of parts coming in Friday so I'll post more then but here are the pics as of now. It was driving when I bought it but I immediately tore it apart.

Does HB rover tires you got there are very good tires. Have fun restoring the wraith.

Pro-Line beads are bad enough, combine it with their completely retarded oversize foams and they're a nightmare.

Yeah after 4hrs of freezing and trimming the foams I only got 1 to seal on both sides. Talk about one of the most frustrating things I've ever done lol

Your lucky that you can work inside. I'm stuck out in the zero degree garage. Very nice. I like what you have done so far.

Finally took it out for its first real outing today after the supershafty trans pro4 3300kv and a mmp install. Damn this thing is a beast! Don't have reverse and haven't figured that out yet but other than that and needing some good foams for these tires Iam really happy with it!

Bassically what is in the pic in the very first post. Sides and front of cage, skid, and interior. Would have def been cheaper to just start from scratch buying a cage and skid for $50.. Prob going to ditch the interior for the spawn aswell. And rear axles reused those.

They are losi 4in crawler shocks. I like them, can't beat them for $40 I haven't had issues with them leaking. Got a set for my buddy's wraith and put them together for him and No issues with leaking and he loves them too. We both have heavy trucks mine is 8lbs his is at least 10 so they act like a droop setup
