I like the spare, almost looks too good to not run it. better performance without it though. what kind of electrics are you going to run? |

Wow this is weird... I was just talking to my MRS about the new Vaterra twin hammers and I said ' The twin hammers is cool but it wouldn't fit in with trailing trucks well, It would be cool if it had a sloping back end and a jeep-like front end, it would be amazing with this style with the IFS and solid rear' Low and behold I opend your thread and it was EXACTLY what I described but based on your own chassis!!! FREAKY BUT on the same note, I want to add my statement to her to your rig. It looks amazing (although I must admit i didn't/don't like the rear panhard with the 4link sorry) |

I like the bumper and skid. Have you thought about putting some aluminum on the underside of the lower A-arms? It'd help it skid across instead of getting caught up on something. It might even add some bling. |

HOLY CRAP, that look freaking insane. I love the bumper and skid, the spare tire would look great on a scaler but not on an FOFF. Are you planning on an interior? |

this is one of the coolest things I've ever seen, if you don't mind my asking, how much did it it cost for the parts?

Thanks guys I need to get a set of 2.8 sand paws for the true FOFF look. That will happen down the road. Don't plan on interior, as I have never built a scaler and wouldn't know were to start; although if I could get the dimensions of those HPI drivers, and if they fit that would look cool. I spent the last 6 months perusing Ebay for parts, took my time and low bid on stuff, and eventually scored everything I needed for the Exo front end for just under $80 dollars. Had the shocks, And I paid $40 dollars plus a old R2 dig tranny for the complete rear housing. ( and yes I knew the upperlink mount was drilled out) I know the spare Isn't true FOFF, but I kinda like it, and most of these rigs don't really look like there big brothers........still deciding on that. | ||||

I'm sure you would be able to drop a Wraith interior in with some mods... Quick and easy? Great build thus far and love the cage!!! |

Ok i have mixed feelings.....chassis is awsome, tubework is sweet, stance is cool and the truck is just plan bada$$....but a ifs foff 72 chevy? I cant get over it, its just un-natural to me. But that aside, awsome build bud. I really really like the chassis setup. Bet you could sell those. |
