I think im going to go the same route as you since i already have some of the parts, Like the t8 maybe since we both live in tn, We may have to have a heck of a bash and i have the most amazing spot ever.

drive shaft clearance pics. where the twin axles have the pinion turned upward it interfered with my upper links some. so to fix this i drilled new holes for the trans and moved the outputs closer to the center. i could have turned the pinions back down but i think im gonna put some high clearance links on it soon, so i wanted to keep the drive shafts where they were.

well here is the finished pics. now for the embarrassing part, i took it out to our lake crawling spot last weekend and forgot the camera. it needs some fine tuning but not much and it actually held up fine. i need to do some mock up with the t8 motor for my blower buggy then im putting it in here and that's when the video will be shot. i will get some more pics the next time im out on the rocks but until then here it is.

now for a little sneak peak, cant say much but keep an eye out for these 8mm out puts from www.supershafty.com i do think the production run will only have 3 screws holding the out puts on the gear, but all i can say is beef!

It looks great with the body panels on ..

However
I would mount the panels on the inside so the chassis is seen
but that's just my opinion


Can't wait to see this thing blast around

Question for you on these shafts. Are they the 3908 E-Maxx 3.3 T shafts or the 5309 Traxxas Nitro Revo 3.3 shafts? Was drilling out to fit needed?
I need to upgrade so thanks for the help.
