one huge thing you have to do, that i did, is convert the wheels to beadlocks. theres a thread on here somewhere called 1.9 beadlock conversion or something like that. just buy new tires, new rims and put a 5/8 inch long 2 inch white pvc pipe around the rims, then put the tires on. and the fake beadlock ring actually will serve as a traditional beadlock. def check out the thread. you can add weight and cut some of the foams out too

yeah thats a good idea! that way you could still have some space left to keep some foam, i added stick on weights which didnt really leave much room for foam so im running no foams in the front
