| Diaz Designs "C" frame
well here is what i have so far. i channeled the frame and i think i'm going to powder coat it or anodize the chassis. not sure yet. might run the e-maxx tranny in this one. or i might run this type of chassis on the hi-lift when it comes out. i can't wait to get my hands on that truck.going to build one stock and one fully modified. more to come.... |

You'll find it's a hell of a lot stronger than just bolting it together flat. Interlocking is the way to go; I figured that out on the O.G. Barnyard Buster last October |

i see that the drilled hole dont really match the arc of the frame. does than cause any kinda of assembly problems IE bolt/nuts or cross rails catching on the side of the c channeled area?
