Talking Copperhead

I just purchased the Copperhead chassis from RC4WD I just finished putting my Axial together last weekend and I ' am already buying aftermarket parts. I hope the wife does not find out. I 'am also ordering my saddle pack and new springs. Can somebody point me in the right way on some beadlock wheels, I 'am not really liking the Axial beadlocks. So I may purchasing some new wheels also. Thanks for the help. I will post pics as soon as I get the chassis in.

I will be running the Axial diff. and tranny, if I can on the 15th of this month I might order my dig. I haven't gotten the tuber in yet I just ordered it today. But as soon as I do I will post pics.

I don't know but on the website the tranny plate has multiple holes for transmissions so I will try that. If that doesn't work I will throw it away.j/k
Maybe I will just drill new holes in the skid plate for the tranny.But as soon as I get it I will take some detailed pics for you.
