Everything except the body is from the hardware store (wheel weights, axle tubes, internal weights) or hobby store (Mini-T Links, battery, truck)


Have done a few more mods to it....new chassis, inboard shocks, articulation now is at 2/58 inches

removed plactic cover for reciver taped and replaced all the hard wire to soft one and cut off If too long
lipo from my little heliy 4#3 400mah make two of them togather mounted at rear (too big looking but run about 30 min)
Add wight all 4 tire rim winding 200 trun front 150 trun rear thin copper wire, this make more wight then lead wire + change all steel ling

Wow, these rides are lookin awesome!!! If at all possible, for those of us who have to run on no-speed dial-up, could we keep the pics from bein huge (not a deal yet) and replies to cool rides please omit the pic of their ride..? I know, it sux, (and I ain't a mod or the original poster) but where I live, unless I pay $100/mo, I can't get h/s dial-up and so much is just unloadable.

Did you cut the Mini T Rod ends shorter? They look much shorter than normal...I like the look much better than the full length ones...
