Sweet truck,the link for the dig,it work ok,its not a bit risky without the fuel tubing taking up over movement of the servo on the plastic dig arm.

Is it alot lighter with the slingshot chassis?

i did mine like that but didnt like the droop setup so im working with someone rightnow on a tvp bodiless chassis for my rf so i can use my revo shocks, or as much from my slingshot as possible.

revo's are my shock of choice if i can get them to fit.i agree on the srung setup for now but torsion could be in my future.

spinner how does it perform on the rocks?

Don't know yet, first comp is tommorow. I would like to run srung but can't find shocks that will work well. revo's are too long.

Post up some vids on youtube or photobucket. Very curious of a 35T and high speed worm gears!
Is it more rock racer then crawler?

I've got some other shocks to play with here in the next few days. I'm gonna run it tommorow drooped and see how I like it. So far it climbs a steeper angle than my swx berg will. Has a really low cog and the zero torque twist of the axles is great.
