Looks good (I was hoping that it wasn't you naked, but figured it was safe to look 'cause the mods wouldn't stand for that.... )

Dude, I don't know. Have you ever seen a crawler before? lol...Couldn't resist, eventhough it's played out. Looks sweet. Is that carbon fiber?

To lengthen a Revo:

Cut male splined end off of a shaft. JB Weld the male end into a female tube shaft. Make it as long as you need it. Then get yourself another female tube shaft and you are done.

The rear is now about 2 inches longer than the front. I actually shortened the wheel base down from 18.5 to 17.5. It was just too long and was getting hung up and high centered, even with the Kongs, mostly because I lowered the truck so much and plan to lower it even more. I'm still playing with link configuration but The Digler crawls better than ever and climbs better than Slyther.
