Default Jwalls 1st wraith build

HI,
I'm really new to the rc world and bought a rtr wraith. I used for 15-20 minutes and started moving things around. So far I moved the esc in back, relocating the battery up front. I have a rc4wd winch going in with separate 480 mah batt (but might get bigger). Flipping shocks ect.
I want to buy an aluminum front bumper with winch mount from someone on this site soon as well.
Here is a pic of work in progress and I'll try and add as I go. Not that this is different from most but its still fun.

It belongs under the axial wraith section. But welcome to RCC.

Welcome to RCC, lots of info here.
Buy a star, it will get you to the "classifieds" sooner.
Yes, this should be in the brand specific section.

1st upgrade will likely be to get rid of the main connector (which is a Tamiya) and go to something better. Most use Deans plugs, but there are others around.

Thank you and I want to switch to traxxas plug at least.
I'll post this elsewhere too.

I believe bgr has a rear bumper with tire mount but don't hold me to it check out the wraith section and search bgr fabrications he has a lot of aluminum goodies for the wraith
