| Here ya go, my very first rock crawler project. haven't been back to electric for quite a long time, this rock crawling got me back to electric. I still need to wait for the 4wd conversion to come. I got all new suspension links, very high torque servo mounted on axle, 3300 mounted to the rear axle, stock WK tranny, 1/8 scale buggy shocks and that pretty much is. feel free to comment. |

| With the frame chopped that short does it rock back and forth length wise as you try to drive it? Looks like it would want to move. Great idea if stable. |

| Looks cool. But if I suggest moving that battery pack off the rear axle to the front axle, or onto the front links. It should improve the rigs abilaty to climb when the time comes. |

| Probably the most creative use of a stock WK chassis yet. They just don't look like they lend themselves well to serious modification. Quote:

| Yes, very creative use of the WK parts! I'd move your steering draglink down to be more parallel with the tie-rod. Bigger pics? |

| How did you mount the servo on there? Looks interesting (in a good way) Let's see some more pics of that please. |

| Looks like he used the rear steering lockout mounting hole and then drilled a hole in the knuckle and connected it with a piece of aluminum. One of the nice ideas that a bigger pic would be nice. |
