Oh damn!

Nice start! The front suspension will be tricky I am sure. I am still thinking about doing an indy front suspension.

got a little more lineing up to do then i might take it to work and put some filler in the roof.i tried a couple of set ups but with everything being so narrow it makes it hard to tuck the tires.i got one more im going to try and if that dont work im going to make a straight axle for the front and figure out the indy front end later. i just want to get the thing rolling. plus then it will make it easy for the airride.

VERY nice...

make sure you shave all the lights and door handles...

(which from the looks of things should be no issues with your building skills...)

as for the front suspension, have you tried a TC front end yet? maybe one from a tamiya mini cooper?

Have you tried M03 or M04 Tamiya parts for the front, they may be what you want

Default i am totally in

i have been thinking about this for a long time. tlt axel narrowed and stampede spindals. i def want 6 ch with 4 servos mounted to mini t shocks for a soft ride and adjustable.

totally digging this thread, another guy got flamed all over the place building his lowered f350 with straight front axels. i am glad guys are supporting this build.
