| My New Wheely King w/pics
Thanks to WKJoe I just got my first crawler. It is way better than I expected it to be and It was an awesome buy. Since I got it I changed the servo mount from plexi glass to alluminum and took out the battery box,and all the other stock plastic parts and exchanged them with alluminum and zip ties. I also zip tied the battery to the front part of the chassis. The body is off now due to painting...Ill post some more pics when Im done painting.....any comments are welcome good or bad.

WK JOE, I made a new servo mount out of alluminum, just got done making alluminum shock and link mounts that go on the axles, Im gonna be making a 4 link mount, I just got the alluminum black widow side plates cut out, so all I've got left to do is make a skid for the new chassis. Its came along way since I got it....... thanx again |
