I've got 6 tool box piglets on the way from HobbyKing. Hella deal on the Orion's is possible.

I'm thinking a hardbody and a truggy cage might be in your future..
your built has focused on getting the truck to spec for durability so far..
you've kept it faily scale and I cant think of anywhere else to go from here since you said your do a cms with panhard.. (i suggest hand bros btw.. plug and play) Why not take the ultimate scale step and go hardbody..

For some strange reason my CKRC order did not process last night (even after processing completely thru Paypal). Now I'm back on the prowl for a high-powered OUTLAW servo deal!

CKRC has never been a good parts provider for me.. they either screw up the order or ship it our 6 days late..

I have a new 87 spur and 13 14t pinions go on ebay for your servo.. 45 shipped.

I think the Silverado with a truggy cage and doved nose would look pretty cool.
