i would by a bully rolling kit from one of the venders on this site. it would be easy for a first timer. or just build it out of things you see working on here.

I agree with the not so cheap part... and the part of an axial, they are a great out of the box crawlers |

well i think this maybe a little cheaper than droping 15k on a fullsize crawler....and its still not done. I guess thats what i get for changing my mind right in the middle of the build. I think ive found a used axial for $150 its got the usual upgrades but not a lot of run time ( there is hardly any rock rash on it). So i am jumping in to water head first. I know it has the stock motor but different wheel/tires, esc, servos, skids, and bent CA. Good start i guess. ill post pics when i get it hopefully in a day or two. thanks for the info yall!
