Default Xtreme's Wraith build up

Started a Wraith build this week. Went with the RTR version, then took it completely apart and started over.
Added Beef tubes, then added some STRC axle upgrades. Re-did the shocks with some Axial alloy housings, then added some solid lower links with a 30 degree bend for clearance.
Mounted up a set of RC4wd MTR tires on a set of Denali wheels with stainless screws. I found a discontinued Proline Rubi body and painted it to mimic my 1:1 JK.
I did a fastback using traxxas solid links and moved the battery up front and esc in back. Got a lot more to do to finish her up, but heres what I have so far!

Took them out for the first time last week on my AX10, and loved them! Go as well as my G8 Swampers, or better!

Those tires look awesome. You will want some upgraded foams in a while tho. If you don't already have some.

Well we had to take the Wraith out today to see if all the mod's and time this week paid off. Yes they did! Crawls like a champ and works like it should. The 27t motor with 87 spur 14t pinion work great and slowed it down to crawl better.
The Savox 300oz servo steers the big MTR's in all situations. Got a lot more to do this week, but liking it as well as my other crawlers so far.

A good dual stage foam will breathe more life into those tires.

Still working on the Wraith this week. I painted the flares black, then modded the roof panel into a bikini top to go with the fastback mod.
Now I gotta paint up a runner body so I don't mess this one up.
She got a little dent and a couple small scratches on Sat's run, so don't want to risk more damage be cause I like to twist it up and fit in tight places when we go.
