Default My Losi MRC Jeep - Video
When we would bought this house, there was this mini Stonehenge rock garden thing in the front. I'm glad I put off getting rid of it!

Wow that thing crawls extremely well. My stocker doesn't crawl like that! Mine usually flips over backwards when climbing things that are too vertical.

Did you lower your MRC by limiting the travel of the shocks or changing them out for different shocks?

The shocks are stock. I removed the electronics and battery tray. I mounted the shocks to the side plates. The receiver on top of the transmission and the speed control on a plate I made for the rear a-arm. Finally the battery was mounted on top of the rear axle. All that plus wheel weight made a huge difference in performance. Then I added Losi Blue Rock Bashers for MUCH better traction than the stock tires.

The Jeep body is 3 oz cut up like that. It's pretty good for a hard body, but the CG is still higher than it would be with a slammed lexan body.

Do you have any body-off photos that you could share with us?
