More to come

OK so onto the real build.

I picked this up last week brand new. It came with the servo Losi C-Hubs, Losi Zero Ackerman Knuckles Aluminum hexes and the rear bent links. I picked up a Brood Anarchy motor for it and last night I got a Tekin B1R esc for it. The guy I got the Brood from didn't know what turn it is So I'm just going to have to try different pinions to figure out what works best. Here is my parts listing so far and how much I've spent.

~MRC Pro w/upgrades (New) = $120
~Brood Anarchy (New) = $45
~Tekin B1R (Used) = $20
~Servo (Used) = $0 (Came with the car)
~Gmade Wheel Wideners (New) = $10
~BWD Servo Mount/Battery Guard = $35 (Including Shipping)
~STRC Servo Mount = $17
~Losi Shock Outboard Kit = $9
~BWD Motor Plate and Motor Spacer = $40

~~~Total = $296 (so Far)~~~

I got the B1R for a pretty good deal off of eBay. All these prices are including shipping. I'm planning on getting Thunder Power 325mah 2s batteries to run in this. I'm going to be using my DX2S to control it and SR3520 RX. I painted up the body yesterday. It's only my 3rd body ever to paint. I didn't to terrible but the CF didn't turn out perfect. It was my first time doing CF.

Some of the Upgrades I plan on getting in the future are:

~Bodiless Chassis (Not sure which one yet)
~C.I. Lil'Nova Foams
~HB Rovers
~MIP CVDs
~Krawler Konceptz Skinz
~RichardGarret's Knuckle Weights
~VP LH Procomp Wheels
~Hitec 7954
~Chaotic Crawler Ti Links
~Losi Aluminum Rear Lockouts

These are in order of when I'm planning one getting them. LMK what other Upgrades you think would be Good for it.

I've edited my parts list to make it in the order of importance. LMK if you think I should get certain things before others.

Since you want to go to a bodiless chassis, you know which one I'm going to recommend......
Get the Low Pro and never look back!

those are the new wheels too!

[EverettY]

Nice the wheels look nice. Do you have to get servo mounts for it? That is a pretty tight fit too.

[EverettY]

Updated again with links to the upgrades I plan on getting.

[papabash]

I wouldn't waste my money on the Losi aluminum rear lockouts, I bent 3 of the inner shafts and went back to dogbones on my non Pro Roller rigs. On my Pro Roller rigs I left the stock rear alone. Much more reliable/stronger IMO.

i would get the servo mount with the the wheels for two reasons.my front end is a nice fit with everything.those wheels also have new technology that don told me.the wheels have a tall ring on the inside them for a couple reasons.first is the ledges are easier to handle and your tire will less likely get stuck in holes because of the diameter.it also makes you tire a lot thinner.putting the tire on is a million times easier because of that center ring it holds the foams up above the beadlocks so they can't pinch as easily.the beadlock is a little bigger than normal but that makes a lot tighter fit.
