| I have been searching around this site now for a couple months now. Have been trying to get a feel for all of the different rigs. But I am still not to sure how to go about this. I want to build a crawler but have noticed that some buy the kit and build from there and others just buy the peices and build it from scratch. Any thoughts and input would be great. Lets say if you didnt have a budget how would you do it. Then what if you did. Thanks for all your help. |

| if you don't have a budget forget it, it gets expensive really fast. If you have a budget feel free to follow along on my thread. I'm also a newbie and on it you can find prices discussions and places to buy after the research i've done and continue doing since i am about 3/4 of the way done maybe a little less chivas72 SW2 newbie build |

| if you want a TLT go to ultimatehobbies.com its eighty bucks there. you wont use the tranny or the chassis but you will get a ton of hardwear that you definitely will need. if you just buy parts its going to be really expensive. more then just buyin the kit, plus you wont get anything different will be the same jazz (for the most part) no matter what kit you build dont buy in parts. |

| If you don't have a budget and you want it easy, but you still have to assemble it... Scroll down this page and pick something you like: http://www.thecrawlerstore.com/complete_trucks.htm |
