Finally I figured out how to post pics. Here's one of my truck. I have a pair of X-Factor axels and Jumbo Kongs that should be here next week. I am then using a 15.5 in. wheelbase, and T-Maxx-sliders, and a gear reduction unit. I will post pics when it is all done. jugg_crawler |

my Twin Force moed the sticks inside the frame upfront with the servo (helps keep the front down (but i can still pop it even with the weight up there lol) running a EVX and Hobbico CS-80 servo (334in-oz @6v) i have it wired so that the exv powers the Rx but the servo pulls its power direct form one of the 6cell sticks (becuze the EVX bec SUCKS) i am colecting parts to switch to 4link going to try Maxx sliders (have), move the servo to the axle, will likly end up droping the evx and x-speeds for a BL setup of some sort waiting on the ball ends to get here then i will go get some threded rod and mock the setup then have the ss links turned action action shot stoped for the pic Joe P.S. im still getting the horazontal rule above the word forums ont eh left pushing the hole post off the right of my screen (1400x1050 my screen size if that matters) if i het refesh it will fix its self but its real anoying |

lets bump this back to the top since we seem to have alot more people joining each day well here is my " Black Widow " project that started out as an Emaxx. turned into straight axles,has a little over 4" of clearance under the diffs,5.75" under the chassis,total height is 12.5", wheelbase is 15.5", axles( outside of tire-outside of tire) are 17.5". i am finally happy with where it's setup and can get 11.5" under one tire with the rest planted to the ground |

Custom chassis and 4 link clod with Land Cruiser 70 body. My first clod and first attempt at building a chassis. Not too pretty, but works extremely well. Next time I will build a tube frame, if I ever get a welder. |

| Re: Your Trucks
you got to mount your stuff up top so the esc and rx dont get splashed with mud and dirt from the wheels. Are you running the widemaxx because thats what i built it on. just would like to know if it fits on the arms well. your almost there just batteries, shocks and steering. |

| Re: Your Trucks
I looked at mounting it up top, but I am gunna baby this truck and only take it out when it is dry, so mud and dirt will not be an issue. Plus if you look at the evx mounted in the back (where the rx is ment to go) you will see the triple heatsink I have on it, so I figured it was best to keep that weight down. As for battery I'm thinking about mounting it on the rear axle,grinding down the rear bulks. Think it would be a good idea? I'm trying to keep this trucks Cog down as much as possible. Thanks again for your input.Almost forgot to say, I'm using the old maxx arms, it seems to be working fine.
