Default My losi mini on roids

This is my mini crawler which I extended and widened 2'' both ways with New Era's chassis and Integy's wideners. I also added Integy's high clearance links, skid plate, carriers, spindles, hubs and diff locks. Then I got Losi's aluminum threaded shocks. I threw on 2.2 beadlocks and Rock Lizard tires. I put on a Hitec HS-5645MG servo. Then I slapped in Novak's Micro Mongoose brushless motor and esc. My future plans are to add aluminum Y arms, driveshaft, a new body, maybe some aluminum axles if anyone knows who makes any, and a dx3r. I will post my new pics when I get new parts in.

To put pics here... Upload them to photobucket.com, or imagehost.com...

Use the [IMG] code... it will put the pics in your post... and not have a link to them.

I see a whole lot of rear axle steer. You may want to check your link geometry. As for getting aluminum Y's, with all the money you have in your setup, you should seriously think about stepping up to a true front and rear 4-link.
Just one question tho, why on earth did you run 2.2 wheels/tires. Just my .002, but seems like your just lookin for trouble.

Looks bitchen tho
