|  Just started my build
Well I just got my WK about a month ago and started to get to work on it to make it into a crawler. I finished up today on a few mods. I kept it as a 3 link for now but I have the stuff to make it into a 4 link. I just finished it up a just a bit ago and had to take it out in the dark to see how it ran. After a couple of min I was hooked and now I just need to keep adding to it. Here are a few pics of what I have done. Custome Lower Links STRC Lockers Traxxas link rear lockouts Traxxas Drive Shafts    Here is somethings that is to come to match my 1:1   -Eddie |

Truck is looking really good so far, what rim/tire combo are you going to use. Your 1:1 is a sweet ride...

Worked on the new body today. This was my frist attempt and I still need to work on the body a little bit in order for the truck to flex. I'm also working on my servo mount too.   Here it is next to my 1:1.   -Eddie |

I was able to 4 link the front and move my servo with some left over parts I had. I just need to take it back apart and fix the upper links a bit as well as fix my servo. Next up I will go get some supplies to make the existing links look better as well as 4 link the rear.   -Eddie |

Made some changes to the truck. This was my first attempt at making a chassis and it came out ok but I am going to make another one. The 4 link in the front needs to be worked on in order to get a better drive shaft angle. So I will keep on working on it till it performs the way I want it to. Custom Chassis STRC Lockers Traxxas turnbuckle rear lockouts Traxxas driveshafts Axial wheels/tires Custome front and rear 4 link T-Maxx springs in the front 60wt Oil Relocated servo     Next thing up will be to start replacing all the stock stuff. -Eddie |

How did you mount your upper link mount to the axle? I'm doing something very similar, and I have a problem with the mount twisting, since I can only get one screw in it. Good looking rig... |
