You can't go wrong with the T1E Rockshow chassis

Thanks for the compliments and harassment guys.

Obligatory shot of the "Pile"



That was the old 86Jeep steering on the used axles I got.

That was the first thing to go away. Moved the servo behind the axle. I'm still waiting on my motors from John Rob so I had to use an old 19t I had laying around to do the modified mount.





Soon after, I discovered the Racer's Edge servo arm is a bit too short for the correct throw with the zero ackerman knuckles, so it was off to TCS for the Robitronic arm. Should be here quick, they ship fast.

By the way, I wanted to give a huge thanks to a bunch of people who help, traded, loaned or otherwise put up with all my questions on this endeavor.

Josh (Harley0706) Motivation and general nuisance.
Jerry (ZORLAC) I was scared to hack my axles, he dove right in.
Eddie (NovasArk) Pointed me to the RockShow and answered a million questions. Eddie is a true gent and a good friend.
Mike (RockShow) Hooked me up and continues to help out. What a guy!
John (SDS Customz) A ton of great info, the tip on the Zero Ackerman. Another great guy.

More to add soon, I've had a ton of help and advice putting this stuff together.

Thanks all!

Just think how much further along you'd be if some asshole wouldn't have called you 10 times today needing graphics done.
