Dual winches would be cool. Front and rear? Rear steering? Two-speed?!

Would need to get a modded skyfly for that!!

i havent had the issues people are talking about with bearings. but then again i usually change my bearings before shtf and as its posted in the bushings thread 'only certain guys drive their rigs hard enough to justify bushings'...

im only on my second set of pinion bearings in timmy... and you guys know how hard i beat on that dude.

if i run bushings, it will be the vp ones. couldnt hurt... especially on the pinion.

i burn up knuckle bearings faster than i do the pinion bearings.
