Are the links all titanium or 50/50 ti and ss? Are those steel driveshafts i spy? Nice aluminum shocks. Is that a piece of the transmission just below the text. If it is then it looks like this one. https://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/ssd00123.htm

Will show more next week. Some good guesses above though. Panhard mount is aluminium BTW.

LOL - can’t blame me for trying.

I reeeeeally hope they’ve somehow included their scale trans/forward motor mount with this chassis. My god would that be sick! I have my doubts though mostly due to cost. I am curious what trans it would use, though.

Just so everyone is clear, this chassis is going to be THE one to buy. If there’s a company out there that has instilled confidence in me, it’s SSD.

I anticipate it will be kinda like the VS4-10 in terms of not needing any upgrades, but budget friendly and more practical. I can’t wait to get my hands on one. This is so long overdue but will totally be worth the wait!!!

It’s a chassis builders kit so I’m guessing it will build to a slider.

If this does in fact include their scale trans, game over. Especially if it’s priced right!

Love all of my GCM rigs but I bet this one will be complete requiring no additional part sourcing and no 3D print parts. Bring it SSD!

What he said! And with the offset diffs, if we (because I doubt I'm alone here) could have the option of left or right offset diffs and transfer case outputs, us GM fans would be very grateful!!

I hope it has the scale transmission. I'm sick of seeing the 3 gear or a variation of it. It's tried and true but something different would be nice.
