Default bar321's cliff climber

Heres a quick history or my cliff climber.
Got it a few months ago, was stock for a long time. Then decided to run my pede's body the wb is to long on it so went with droop suspension to get it to fit. was stock just bashing around for the rest of the time till last night when i was thinking (ya i know really rare) so got to modding and after cutting some stuff up got the front wheels to fit then came the rear...with the hex's i had at the time it would not work so i locked out the rear steering. but went up to dallas today to pre-order the mini e-revo so got another set of front trx hex's and the rear track width is now the same as the front. and well thats bout it for now i have 2 vids of it stock on youtube heres a link http://www.youtube.com/v/-6H8He1zOPs and http://www.youtube.com/v/4Su2sQ5oAtI.
Then added slash tires.


Ok well went crawling today and think i am starting to strip out the front output. :( I am gonna order steel ones all around tho. Also made some scale ropes last night and hot glued them into the bed.

Nice looking rig man. I've wondered what the Slash tires would look like on one of these. They look good, and they go very well with that body.

thanx but im working on a new vid. I was sitting around thinkin of how to make some cash to get a scx10 and well, some how a revo rod ended up where the stock lower stearing link was. It adds a bit of toe out but it is metal and my stock link is starting to brake a bit (finger sliped when i was up near a drop off).

i used 15 lb mason rope rapped around in a oval then around sideways then hot glued it. Just got back from a awesome trail run any one who said that bikes and crawlers don't mix are wrong there is nothing funner then having a chase view of a crawler. I will try to get a vid up later tomorrow.

Can't wait to see the vid. I bet biking behind it is quite fun. Might have to try it myself one of these days.
