Looks like a great start, I'll be keeping an eye on this one. I cant wait to see what you have planned for your axles.

On a side note: you'll want to have this thread moved to the General Scale section as this is the area for all trucks running 1.9" wheels.

there home made axles that look pretty realistic and i havent made the rear axle yet. the front is all custom made and it uses xmod evo knuckles that have ban modifyed.

there are some small, like 1/3 the size of traxxas rod ends that I think Dubro makes that would look good on there. My LHS had em the other day, if I go back I will post up a pic for ya.

Nice build BTW, and oh yeah, wrong forum:-P

do u have the pics of the tiny ball joints because i cant really go on on the chassis before i get them because if i build the rest of the tube work i might havce to tear most of it back out.
