|  jdawg's TCS C-Trail (in progress)
I got a TCS C-Trail and wanted to do something different with it. Here is what I have so far. It is a work in progress and I may change things as I go.

Thanks guys. It is the TCS C-Trail chassis designed for the Cliff Climber. http://www.tcscrawlers.com/TCS-Crawl...r-p-17202.html They are Cliff Climber axles with modified axle mounts and Tamiya Highlift leafs. Cliff Climber shocks without springs. Axial stub axles with DTX aluminum knuckles to narrow it up. J |
