Looks good. Too much articulation for my taste. It will let tires fall into holes and cracks. But hey, some guys like it that way. |

I got almost everything in trades... the dude I got the axles from said something bout pro mods. Don't know exactly what he meant, but it sounded good. My buddy said the knuckles look like bergs, but he wasn't positive.

That's what else it was... I believe there are berg gears inside. They are also drilled for weight reduction. But w/ the offset of my current wheels and the super softness of rovers, I have ripped 1 tire twice, but I think I fixed that. Also have some foams coming to do a 2 stage setup and lookinging for a narrower wheel w/ a different offset |

I'd leave them, adds character, but it's your rig.

Well if I don't put the new panels on then they will never get character... lol Plus those panels have seen comps by the previous owner and the new ones have only been seen by a couple ppl period... |

So I finally got to hit the rocks yesterday. This thing has amazed me compared to my previous rig. I did have to put in a hitec 645 though cuz I stripped my servo arm on my other servo, lost bout 40oz. Torque but it still did good. Now I'm waiting on some losi boss claw foams to stiffin up the tires just a lil. Just put on some 2.2 x 1" rc4wd alum. Wheels w/ a wider offset so now I'm not rubbing springs so bad while turning and a slightly wider rig in general. The new wheels also gave me bout approx. 1/4" taller tire. Still haven't put the new panels on yet but I will soon and pics will come
