The rear end wasn’t by choice either haha. I completely destroyed that as well after taking a few large falls.

I really ****ed this rig up full sending her.

Chopped some things that I’ll probably regret later and started more styrene.


I’ll finish the other side once I get more tubing

Tube work is done. Not to thrilled with my bends but it’ll do for now.

Swapped out my sidewinder for a furitek iguana pro. 1/3 of the size, loves 3s, strictly brushed and just as good.

Next will be 4ws with the avatar system from furitek once I can give up the 150 bones…..

I’m sorry to see what happened, because this build is one of the crawlers that looks so good, and handles very good also, which is very important to me. So works in all important ways. My way of thinking is “function over form”, but if it looks good also, even better!

Have looked at this thread a lot, and I am glad that you have got it working again. I haven’t got instagram, but I could see the video. I’ll look more over there later.

Thanks for the kind words bud! She’s not done yet! Few more things in the list and then I’ll start another build.

Got new meats for her. Definitely the look I’m going for!

Woah! What a thread! How do you like your rc4wd beadocks? I think they fit your build very well!

Thanks bud!

I like these wheels A lot! They’re my favorite wheels to date! I actually got a killer deal on them from a seller on eBay.

Softer springs, pushed the front axle out 2mm, almost full droop now, new oil shocks. Waiting on a new rear servo because this hitec can’t find its center anymore.
