Sounds Good!

Just read up on all the build threads in the Mini Crawler Section and you will be good to go!

things i did and will do after i read all of the posts. remove or cut the stock battery tray (i removed mine and mounted the shocks to the chassis), lower electronics (i like the ESC mounted on the rear axel but i have my battery there until saddle packs come out to mount on the front axel. lower body 1/2 inch. remove 1 big spacer from front shocks and add to the rear shocks. get sticky wieghts and mount inside of rim (make sure not to cover the breather holes, i also pulled the tires in the front and mounted weights inside also. i am also going to do the PVC beadlock conversion after i get the blue compound tires.

go weight forward and lower the COG and have fun!

1.9 Beadlock conversion, so easy it's stupid

As for shocks most are using the 3Racing MLST alloy shocks or their Minizilla shocks.
