I wanted to build some tunnels to cover the d-shafts but Dad didn't want to...likes the idea of being able to have easy access to everything.

I'll probably still make'm just to clean up the look of the interior.

Need to clean up that motor mount as well.

The Scorpion King is standing on its own legs now.





Flex shots...







Still need to limit droop in the shocks but the suspension is, for the most part, done. I did the best I could with the long cockpit/short link setup...should work decent once we limit travel. Will make the upper plate for the front link tomorrow as well as mount the steering servo.

Unimoger is sending some black rock rings, we just yanked the old ones off Ralph for now.

Thanks, Ben!

ScG,

BigRich, partial foams in the tires...the wheels are double-narrowed.
