Just wanted to give an update. Becky finished the rig last night and I works well. She is hoping to post up the rest of the build sometime today/tonight. I did get one picture on the way out the door for work. It is a cell phone picture so it not the best. She changed a few things on the crawler. She put on bent rear lower links, put the original rear lower links and made them the front lower links, and installed the optional upper aluminum links front and rear. I think in the near future she will be building a diffent battery tray and run smaller batteries. Last edited by Cruzin Illusion; 08-14-2010 at 10:16 AM. |

I know these pictures are skipping a few hundred steps but I wanted to post up the finished product. You can see some of the mods that Becky did to the crawler. You can see the bent rear links and the optional upper links. She also moved the original rear links to the front. I know Becky is looking for some material today to build a different battery tray. She spent alot of time on the electronics and wiring to get everything to fit nice. There was a lot of shorting of wires and repinning of connectors. |

| I can tell you with DH Pro's up front and the 335 spacers it measures 11" outside of tire to outside of tire. (Tire not wheel) The rear measures 10" with 1" SLW's with the 350 offsets. I think Becky is planning on going with the 475 spacers in the rear to widen it up. That should give it 3/4" or 3/8" per side, difference versus 1" or 1/2" per side.
