Just got my Mixer chassis and lockers from Rcbros today and decided to swap em out. Had to make custom front drive shaft due to the extended wheel base. It now sits at a 9.25". Previously done; upgraded servo to 645mg, CVD's, 10t pinion (sick torque) and 4 link front & rear.
Here are some pics:

What i started with

Locker installed

Mixer chassis

Extended shock mounts(Due to longer wheel base)

Closer to being finished but still not complete

Flexin'

steering radius

In need of a new body!

Planning on soon adding the threaded losi shocks, bent links in front, new body and taller tires. Does anyone have a clue on what is the TALLEST 1.9 tire out there? I was thinking the flat irons but opinions would help.

I have the RCbos shocks and i am not impressed with them. The body is HUGE and mine leak a tad but they may leak because i suck at putting them together. I like the reviews on the vendettas.

the vendettas are shorter then the RCBros...

when you assemble the RCBros shocks put a little thread tape around the top, and make sure to keep the rubber seal clean and dry before you put them back together.
