Looks great . The more rigs I see with these axles, makes me want to get a set. The hard part will be convincing the wife!

Looks like it has the possibility to be a very capable crawler Cole. I think your right about the length it wants to be longer.  |

Awesome looking chassis. I was thinking of designing a 1.9 tuber with a similar design. If I decide to do it, I'll be taking some cues from yours.

Some video of Coles running his berg at BG. 4 place out of 50+ 2.2's. I think he made a new chassis.  Good job.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcWCCnomcnQ |

Thanks Tom, love the video ...and yeah it's a new chassis. This one works alot better! It's lighter & was more thought out. Here's a few pics from battlegrounds. Close-ups:   What goes up....  must come down  Oops   Stole a stub shaft from Rockbound to finish, but didn't get much further after that. I have some axial shafts in it now. Here's some link flex for ya. This was on the indoor course at my shop  On course 3 the link bound up and shot me right into perfect position to clear gate 3, one that most hit. Gotta luv it!!!!!!!!! |

Chassis turned out sweet Matt! Looks like it is performing well can't really tell from the pics but are the sides boat sided or just straight up and down? Looks like they are straight up and down from the picture of the truck on it's lid? |
