I will try to get some pics for you guys tomorrow or the next day. I just have it on the stock chassis for now so how knows I might change it someday but I will see how it works when I get things done. I start my new job on monday and I have been really nervous about starting a new job because I have been working at a tire shop for two years now. and my new job is a little different I will be painting and helping put thing together for a machine shop in town but it will pay more and after six months I will get their health care benifits. so I really hope that it works out because I don't want to keep changing jobs because I'm getting sick having to start new. at a new place after getting use to another. anyway i'm rambling sorry. but thanks for listening or reading .

I almost hate to call you on this one but sorry you'll never be "almost done modding my WK". One mod begats another, begats another . . . in ad nauseam. I bought mine in May and right now all that is left from the stock is the axles, knuckles and transmission. Modding is a never-ending journey and I think if you give up modding, then you've lost interest in the hobby. I don't know about everybody else but for me "modding is half the fun" - or at least 1/4!!! Welcome to the addiction. |

sean, thanks for the advice I went through the modding absession with my nitro trucks. and I know that I will probably never be done modding my wk but I might go a while between mods. my next mod will be a new motor and what gearing could I use to get the torque I need but still get some decent speed when I want to put the hammer down? thanks.

15T pinion/ 96T spur seems to be the hot ticket.

I'm running the 15/96 setup now. Torque is good but you can easily walk along with the thing at full throttle. Sean |
