|  Ope's MRC "Lap Dog"
K-9 made this tuber and it looks great. made very well looks great top notch tuber. i can tell after getting it its kinda bolt on but kinda not. the skid,links,and front shocks bolt pretty much right on. but the chassis is to wide so u cant put the 3link on i have to have someone show me how to make a 4link or make one for me for this little thing. the rear shocks dont line up either u have to move them outward on the axle "i need some long screws so i can put them on" and the top im gonna have to put spacers to push the shocks out so they dont bind. once i get some help on this stuff ill find a spot for electrics. comments and info are all welcome. heres some rough pictures   nevermind some of the comments above its all worked out and the 3link did work and the rear shocks just needed some spacers and work fine now.

Lookin good... Change your lower shock mount and do the "Badger Mod" it will perform much better and lower it a bit  ... That color looks sweet, now get the side panels on...

mount your shocks to the lower link mount.(thats the bender mod) or just limit them internally to suck that thing down a ways. looks pretty good though |

monday or tuesday ill be taking it out for its first real test run. ill see how the shocks work i put 45wt oil in them and right now they seem to articulate great no binding,they were easy to mount but i needed to buy 4 lock nuts cause i didnt have ones that were small enough for the screws that come with the shocks other than that they were effortless to put on. i cant wait to test it out with all the new goodies |
