Looks really good

With the number of grappler bodies being put on bergs one could be forgiven for thinking that these are in fact stock berg bodies even though there is no such thing...

I bought three from the US because after seeing so many bergs with grapplers I think a berg just doesn't look like a berg unless it has a grappler

thanks everyone i have a lot of fun with it and able to pull a lot of different lines that my friend can't and i couldn't before so i love it its awesome. i think the grappler is just easy to come by, really functional and doesn't look half bad

Well its been awhile since i built the berg up and as you could imagine some thing have changed... ok everything has change a few times. The only thing that is original is the berg axles, and even parts to those have been swapped out.
The upgrades:
VP SLW's
Punk dig switch
HH 45's
FXR
OTA/BTA steering
Also I found amoungst my old rc chit i found a set of old losi 4 inch shocks and rebuilt them with new seals and ti nitride shock shafts from the now "crawler shocks", work like a charm.
So here's some pics of its current form. Comments welcome








Just a few minor changes.

Thanks Brian for the usage of you camera pictures look much better than mine.
