hmmmm......... lots a questions

i want a crawler that will be cheap have good clearance also i will lock the suspension. chassis isnt a prob. because i will soon make my own but what about under the diff clearance u cant really change that can u? o also it has to be four wheel or four wheel capable. i was thinkin stampede but how much is it to make it four wheel and does it look normal?

well for lots of under diff clearance you can run kongs, or make hybird emaxx axles. there alot more work though. theres alot of thing that deteremine what you will want to run. surf around alittle bit more since the only way you can have a locked suspension as you put it, would be on an emaxx. you probably ment a locked diff. (big difference). the twin force is a newer crawler with some cool axles that you may want to look at. just keep surfing the site.

ok thanks

also would the twin detonator be any good? can it fit e/t-maxx wheels or other big wheels?

Twin Detonators can be had for pretty cheap, but crawling isn't as easy with independant suspension trucks: they just can't get the articulation that is neccessary. I've heard of people putting Maxx or even Clod wheels/tires on a Twin Det, but that would probably stress the motor and steering. I have yet to own one, but researched them a bit when I was thinking about it.

is it possible to lock my suspension on a twin detonator?

[dabid]

Why? That would eliminate ALL suspension travel! The Twin Det. does have somewhat independant gearboxes, so if you were ambitious, you might be able to rig a crawler out of it by keeping the arms stiff and effectively making a solid axle, or by doing a hybrid with independant suspension AND gearboxes that are linked to the chassis.
