Default Anyone still use Nylint Crawlers?

A couple years back, before they merged the Nylint forum with General Crawlers, there were quite a few of us dedicated Nylint guys.. Anyhew, anyone here still have one?

If so, I could use some advice. I am looking to modify my chassis so its a little closer to looking scale. See my vids here:

I am using a Grand Cherokee body that I had to completely gut out to get all of the nylint to fit into. I would love to see any setups that retain the stock axles but use a whole new frame..

Thanks!

Best thing I ever did to mine was a tummy tuck. Cut the chassis and raised the battery up about 2 inches. Had to modify the floorboard of the body, but it was night and day.

Yeah, I have done a tummy tuck since those videos. You're right, it is night and day.

Damn thing broke a thousand times, never worked right and was taking up to much room.
