Big, burly, angry, sharp lines, and maybe some teeth painted on it like the front of airplanes? or not. Something that is just huge and gnarly will be perfect. |

Well I don't have pics till monday. but I mounted the front servo on the frame and made it look kinda like a 1:1 steering set up *KINDA* but I had to put it on the right side :( I may do it with the rear steering but well see. I hope to have it running today and see how it drives. |

Well I was under the weather this weekend and didn't get a whole lot done. But here is the pics of the front steering set up. I need to make the arm for it to turn the wheels. I just didn't feel like getting out of bed to much.:-( |

I'll try to mount the second servo and install the motors (still not feeling well). I just received the motor mounts so I'm wanting to run this thing... Oh and my neighbor just received a load of rocks just sitting in their front yard waiting for something to go over them I'll be driving before powder coating and painting this thing. I also need to fix the ESC my son decided to cut the wires. I shouldn't of let it out. glad you like it so far. |

I came in at 7 - 7.5 lbs. I think I'm doing good for a 19" WB SCALE clod. I think when I'm done and a body on it will be around 9 - 10 lbs. | |

The steering is a nifty setup. Will you have problems under flex, or is the shaft telescoping?

It moves through a hole on a plate that is attached to the axles. Keeps it in place. I'll try to get more done soon. I didn't get a chance to work on it like I had wanted to . :-( | |

Well, my thought is with a solid shaft when the axle moves up and down the distance between the servo and the axle will change. Does the shaft have a slider that I am missing?
