Are you going to tie the cage in with the front bumper.

The front shock tower and front bumper mounting holes are in a tight setup. Brain storming on the best setup that will hold up. I am going to reinforce the area under the steering area too. Couple more hours of fab time. | |

I'm done with it. Good enough for me. Time for paint and assembly tomorrow. Maybe a little test drive too. Front suspension is fully tied into cage. Should be solid. | |

Running 19t pinion and 36t spur in the video. Tons of low end, could use some gearing up. Just swapped out to a 20t pinion after the video. Going to put on a 37t spur soon. Luckly, I was able to get the two batteries low (two 2200mah, 40c, 11.1v lipos in parallel). Kinda nose heavy right now but jumps pretty flat. It sticks to the ground right now. Running a front sway bar. going to have to devise a rear sway bar. Torque twist action on high traction surfaces. about 7.5lb rtr now. .... Last edited by Szczerba; 10-02-2011 at 08:05 PM. | |

I was going to go with white. The blue is a little darker than baby blue. Pictures make it look a little lighter. | |
