Default My first crawler

Never build one before. Always wanted one so here it it.
Full droop set-up
2.5" belly clearance
80% Anti-squat/Anti-dive front and rear
Less then 1% over steering (flex steer)
3.875" Roll center
Body is 2.75" wide

Here are the specs:
-I designed the chassis on Solidworks had it laser cut.
-The skid plate is 3/8" Delrin
-Tranny is AX10
-Motor is an Integy 55T
-Gears are 87 tooth and 14 tooth No Slipper (no idea the names, spur and pinion i think)
-MIP drive shafts
-Heavily modified RC4WD shocks (jato Shock lower flex joint, Traxxas small upper flex joints, Airtool oil)
-AX10 Axles
-6 cell 1800 MAH split pack (will soon switch to LIPO's)
-AX10 Spoked rims
-Servo is hitech 645.

Items yet to be installed/arrive from random people around north america
-Rooster crawler
-TQ3 Remote / receiver
-Losi rock claws
This build was done on a budget, some items are not the best but will eventually swap out. I have Delrin that i will be making lower links later on.
Enjoy

Looks good! I really like when people design their own parts, especially their chassis!
