I remember Zero wanted some stuff because I just talked to him..

Who else? Pm me for details. Local boys only for this stuff!
I'll take some steering links!

Damn, looks good. I haven't opened my JK body yet, waiting till I get it a little warmer in the shop so I can paint it.

Are you bringing it tomorrow? I want to see how you cut it.

Mine is sitting better and ready to run. Not done but running.

Wasn't planning too it looks pretty but is a long way from being done . I didn't mount it or cut it quite to spec LOL. I really screwed up on the grill though. I've actually have a second body heading my way for my other wraith.

If I can I'll throw it in the car. Good Looking mog. I always wanted a 1:1 set up with a small camper box!

Well, I spent most of the day and all night getting these parts cut, turned, milled & bent. I think they came out pretty damn good. It feels good to be able to offer you local guys custom parts.

I thought the Wraith and AX/SCX10 transmissions held the same gear set, RPP has different prices for the idler and diff gear. Any one know why?

Die-Laughing is proud to present his new rig! It was way too cool to pass up. Amazing work on this truck. My boner has not yet gone down. Wait, what?

I think this rig will be the one to showcase my future custom machine work.

It's still gonna be my C2 F-350 Terror!

The FJ just made me drool looking at it, I had to buy it. I know what it would take to fabricate that truck and, I wouldn't do it for the price that I paid.

It's easy when your truck isn't put together yet and these are part of the original assembly. A crappy photo but look at all that sweet Die Laughing stainless.

I'm trying to work on as many non functional scale points as I can on the Chevy without having all of the crawler stuff on it. Thinking exhaust, mirrors, windshield wipers, etc. Does a shotgun on a gun rack in the back window count?
