I made that fuel cell myself. I just used styrene I bought off of eBay. As for the Miclaws, they are very grippy! They didn't stay on this truck though, they went on my S-10 truggy. You have to make sure they have plenty of clearance, or else they will get caught up on the body. I've snapped stub axles that way!

The way Tbuck did it... I can tell you right now that the way he has his steering pictured in that thread, does not work! I'm not trying to call him out, but without a draglink at least, that setup doesn't work. I know this because when building my Toyota I studied that build over and over, and I tried that steering setup a hundred times over! In the end I mounted it to the axle.
