I Really Like The Axles. It Seems Like They May Be The Hot Ticket For 07'.
The Buggy Is Sopposed To Like Like My 1/1 Comp Buggy, Here.

Sweet, I plan to build a WK axled rig at some point this year.

How does it perform w/ only droop travel? Very interested in the concept.

Thanks Guys. The Suspension Works Great. I Kind of Use This On The 1/1 Rigs I Build. The Rig Does Not Want To Unload Going Verticle Or On Side Hills. There Are No Springs Pushing All The Time Trying To Roll It.

In 1/1 Comp Rigs, Everyone Went To Air Shocks Because They Dont Unload Like Coil Overs Do. Same Thing Here, When I Go Vert And Turn It Also Doesnt Unload And Lift A Tire. I Think I Need Some More Driving Time, But So Far It Works Great.

Both of those rigs look mean as hell. Looks like I'll have to try a Wheelie King, if they ever come off backorder

The LHS has two in stock! As soon as I land a new job I might check em out. Maybe by that time the parts will be available so I won't have to buy two of them.



Oh yeah, Nice buggy(s) KB!

That is fantastic! Great looking rig.

I've had me WK for a couple of weeks and thats what I'd like to do to mine too. Any comments on the chassis? Did you build it or buy it?

I'd liek to try making my own tube chassis, but I have no idea where to start the build.

Could you show us a few more pictures of how you attached your servo for the steering, and your rear suspension triangulation.
