Ok guys sorry for the delay i was waiting on parts and when i got home this is what was in the mailbox

Also i got a steal on all 4 wheel hubs with bearings for $9

I only got 2 wheel axles today so i wnt ahead and mounted a pair of my wheels on the hubs, when i mounted one of the wheels it had alot of slop in it so i took one of these, and cut the eye off and made a shim

I also only got one set of shocks in today as well

i am unsure what weight oil that was in them but it was really heavy and overfilled, so i drained them and filled them to my preference with 10w-30 motor oil and mounted them

Ive installed some more leds in the rollbar light buckets, im waiting on a couple of things before i hook them up


And i will be painting the back of the light bezels and the wires flat black to help hide them.
I also got my hot racing lower link mounts today as well

And last but not least the body sitting on the chassis


Sorry for such a big update but im sure nobody minds lol, if more pics are required let me know and i will provide,

I actually trashed that body, it was beat to begin with. IMHO, id remove the stacks they look guady.

Its a work in progress, i keep switching things around. But it is locked, traxxas XL5 ESC and Traxxas 2075 servo.

I disagree...the Wheely King is a monster truck, and most of them are pretty crazy looking.

I think the stacks on anthony's body look pretty similar to something you'd see on a real monster truck.

Just my .02.

Hey Anthony, looking good! On that Hot Racing upper link, the 2 little screws that hold the arm on will definitly need some some locktite and watch the ball, they wear quickly. Good luck! Hank
