| well it looks like a work in progress so far. doubt he has nailed down any certain specs yet since he will be going to a bigger tire and other stuff. from the pics, he doesn't even have the Revos' in yet. just from the looks, i would say around a 16" WB |

| how did you attach your servo plate/ upper link mount to the axle? im brainstorming before i hook mine up, and your way looks much cleaner than what i was going to try. could i get a close pic? |

| John, I just got off the phone with Kris.. his only comp right now is at work. He explained what he did to me, but I'll let him explain it the WB is set at 15 1/2" and RTR it weighs in at 6.5lbs i believe  |

| thats seems awful light! with batteries?? i think i might have found a good way to make a servo plate, but i would like to see his idea too. i have read every thread in this subforum and it looks really similar to another that i saw. dont remember the poster.

| cool. that helps me out a lot. now i just have to decide what method i am going to go with. it needs to be strong because my twin is gonna be faster than a crawler, but used around places with lots of slope changes. |

| have you had any problems with the pede sliders for a driveshaft yet? I just ordered for the revo units for mine since it is so heavy (14 lbs)... I hope they are strong enough. |
