I just purchased a tuber chasis from Beckworks based of the JH design with a few mods. I have pede tranny, 50T V10 Integy Motor or 55t lathe, savage/WK/PTI GRC shocks. Long traxxas liknks and MMax esc. Never runa droop set up and not sure if superior? Looking for a 13-14" whl base. Red Rocks Imex tires. Curious on how to set up this rig the best as far as motor and power, gearing and really suspension. Even a scale rig is feasible. Any input, advice or similiar build experience would really be appreciated....I love this crawler side of rc!
Thanks All!

Just of the parts on hand! Pede tranny mounted with 55T 13+ wheelbase, mamba max, and 8 cell 2/3a's. Not sure what suspension to run and at what angle? Droop seem confusing and traditional seems proven. Low COG already so not a prob with servo and battery mount on opposite sides of front axle. Moabs 2.2 on the way. If those are best? Beckworks chasis...This is all new to me from my other builds. Thanks for reply and inquiry. I need to get progress pics up, but that is the general setup.
