Has anyone had any experience with this crawler? http://www.tcscrawlers.com/50-off-Sc...t-p-16133.html It is one of the most interesting crawlers I have come across and was wondering if it was worth my time or money? |

Yeah, I want to know too! The Rock Buggy by the same folks seems to be BAD ASS. But with no official videos or user forums around, its hard to get a feel for how these will do. Plenty of people are running their G Transition shocks. |

I have been reading and reading what crawler to build. I wanted to do Clod buster based, since I have a friend with new clod axels. Then today I saw the Spider. I'm thinking of buying this model instead. Does anyone know where the best place to buy this model from? Thanks, Nick |

Hey all, Hate to sound like a broken record here, but would anyone recommend not buying this model? I'm thinking of pulling the trigger very soon, maybe tomorrow and just would like to know if maybe there is a better route for a similar model/rig? If you don't recommend, why? Thanks for any help or advice, Nick |

I used to have one (not the buggy body but the other) and I was impressed with it. Drove real well and it was sturdy. high quality parts and the gentleman that runs the company is very polite and nice. I had to sell the car because I was short on cash at one point and that was the only car I am unhappy about selling off to. I would love to get one again... |

So it looks like i waited to long to pull the trigger and buy a G-Made Spider? I don't see any other sites that sell them, I questioned about pricing on TCS site, and they raised the price that same day. Total BS... Anyhow, Does this mean at G-Made discontinue them? :( That was the only crawler that really looked cool to me. Does anyone have a suggestion were i could go to pick one up, or Some crawler that was similar to the Spider that i should look at? Thanks for your time and help, Nick |

Is there a different model I should look at that is like the spider? As just email Junfac and they have discontinued the spider. It's a dam shame... Thanks for any help you can give. Nick | |
