Looks good Dez. Keep up the good work. Can't wait to hear how it does on the rocks with all your changes.

Thanks, I have high hopes for the CC. I am a huge fan of the MOA/MDA axle design. I think that these axles along w/ the alterations and modifications I'm making will lead to a very capable little crawler!

it will be interesting to see how this pans out. dez, dont let us down !

Well I played w/ the CCZ for a bit this afternoon and I like the results! First I mounted my J Concepts Rock Steady body that I was using on my Berg, it look like it was made for the CC!



I then found another set of links and moved them to the location that 4xFord suggested. They fit great and look at the difference in clearance.



Little closer shot.

So what kind of width did you end up with after the stub axle mod?

The front w/ the Axial stubs and the stock CC tires and wheels is 9 inches.

That's a great idea I wouldn't mind if we (MNRCRC) did something like that.

Yeah, we have a few guys w/ TLT axles that are not being used, and a few w/ the CC, so we decided why not do a smaller class?

With the Losi Mini Crawler also available, I'm sure we'll have a spec class for it as well.

So much for not having any options!
