Pics of the chassis. You can see the suspension setup.

Looks good. It looks a lot like the chassis I made out of styrene for my 4-Runner. What's the body off of?

I remember those things that body came off of. Some kind of solid axle RC from walmart but I can't remember the name. Axles were about VMG width if I remember. Nice use of the body.

I've moved the body backwards. I think it looks better now.
IMO this thing has two problems stock:
- Shocks
- Run times

Both are now solved. I've used 4 AAA 1000mAh batteries.

And added lights.

Looks killer Nick! Is that the stock battery just broke down? I an no good with the electronics, but I think im going to have to learn as I am getting ready to build 2 scale micros and I want to hide as much stuff as I can..So I figure I will have to rewire a few things as well as make a batt pack.

No, these are 4 AAA batteries. The stock one is waaaaaaaaaaay smaller.

Looks pretty good , but i'd swear that bronco body was a international scout. I know it says ford but it dosent look like an early bronco. Anyways nice car. I'm sure it was fun to build.
