Anyone know where one could get this in Canada? $30 is steep for shipping from the US.

Honestly I had forgotten how relaxing it is to wrench on crawlers. Nathan I will shoot some pics of the standoffs for you asap. Austin I really like how nicely this truck came together. I still have some finishing up to do but it will be on the rocks tomorrow rain or shine. Last edited by grover; 11-02-2009 at 07:58 PM. |

Very nice, those look like they could be very versatile for several things, including mounting body posts like you've done |

I don't have the electronics "mounted" just yet (I will post up a pick when they are in and looking good). I did get to drive it for the first time today though and it was sticking all my practice lines no problem and did some that I just didn't think a 1.9 could get onto. New shocks are in order and a castle bec to help power my 5645mg then she will be ready for the comp saturday. I am loving it Austin! |
