|  New here with my wk Hi I'm new to the wheely kings but am building it into a real nice crawler. I am very happy with how it is turning out. I have a 55t integy, a relocated custom axle mounted hitech 645mg servo, extended lower links(traxxas), 2.2 moabs on the stock wheels,and a custom skidplate for the tranny. Oh yeah and a 52 chevy body. Trying for the more scale look. Heres some older pics and video. I now have redone my front servo mount and added a skidplate to the tranny. Any comments welcome. Hope to be a part of this board. Looks like alot of very good info.    |

| Yes I have locked the diffs, I knew I forgot to metion something. Well I locked the rear and semi-locked the front. It doesn't turn very well with the front locked and I don't have rear wheel steer and I'm not planning to get it. Also yes it is stretched a little but not to crazy. I want to stay looking somewhat scale. I used traxxas to extend a little and just to convert to metal links. |

| Oh and I also have about 4-5 oz of weight in each front wheel. I work at a tire place and have easy acess to sticky weights. |

| I game whenever you are. I just added some new stuff and this truck is ready! I relocated the stock battery case to the front. Way better weight in the front. I custom made a aluminum mount in the rear for the esc. Crawls real nice now with the extra weight in the front. I'll get pics up later.    Last edited by wkcrawler4me; 06-03-2007 at 05:02 PM.
