|  Jeremy's Berg BJV4
Well, I've been running my bully for quite some time now and decided to see what all this berg hype is about.  This new chassis is pretty damn slick. You can use the cab spacers provided to get the comp legal width, or add your own for a custom width. Specs: BJV4 HHTQ, Punk, CCBEC, Brood Creep R/T 35Ts, 13T front and 12T rear pinions RCI steering, VP Knucks, Futaba S9157 Traxxas XLs, w/mini-t and losi golds, and Dr. Frank cups Links, Tires, Wheels, etc. Pics:   More progress over the weekend!

Well, I've got the links and shocks setup on this truck and that's it for now......we've got family coming over for the next day....got a bit of housework to do before they get here. BTW, I must say that I love how narrow the chassis is.....setting up the links was a breeze! |

 If it makes you feel any better, I didn't break a single thing on my berg axles until I upgraded to some nice HH motors. The only thing that I broke was a gear pin on a hard fall. If you are relentless on your truck then you may need to get some money wired through Western Ashton or you will be going through some gears. The small 3rd is what breaks first.

Yeah.....one of my main problems is that I am a very slow crawler....but I think that makes it easy on breakage. I have plans to upgrade stuff....when it breaks. I was already spending a good chunk on the initial setup. I'll likely need some stronger axles....you know Eddie will hook it up with the motors! |

Yeah, the TQ wil be the ESC that was in my Bully previously. Wheels will be from Wheel Works. Eddie, I need to get another set of those motors if you are up to making another pair. |

Well I figured Wheel Works wheels. Thought you may have had a style in mind. What are you doing that you need the CC bec with the HH esc? Just curious. I want to run the br-xl and eliminate the external bec. |
