Default Building an moa comp crawler

I posted yesterday here asking a few questions, and I've decided to build an moa crawler from the axles up. I'm looking at the Bully 2.2s Bully Comp 2.2 Front & Rear Axle

Would these be decent to build up a first moa crawler? Do axles generally come with linkages, or do I need to buy them? Would they work well with a chassis like the Gunslinger?

Also, I'm thinking about buying almost everything (sans radio) from rc4wd. Is the outcry 2 motor esc decent?

Thanks for your patience!

Do you plan to go to comps with it or is it just for bashing? If you want to do comps then the Bully 2 are the axles you need to look at, especially if your looking at a chassis like that. Links can be easily made yourself or made for you. Take a look at some Team Brood motors in the 30-35 turn range and some Holmes BR minis or Tekin FXR's for speed controls. For a steering servo I'm liking the Protek 170T.

Yeah, Bully 2s rock! plan to spend $1200 or more to get everything you will need to do it right. Its usually most effective to make the links yourself to fit the axles and chassis. Often i seem to go through a few rounds of bending and cutting before getting it just right.
Good luck!
