Got my axles all put together today, one of the trusses didn't come in yet so I'm still waiting on that and my batteries. Tried to post pics earlier but guess I need to update my membership. Also order some rc4wd 110mm king shocks. Going to narrow the wheels and tires tomorrow and start on the chassis after the weekend.

Got the drop crossmember, body mounts and lower links made, gonna make the upper links tomorrow. Still waiting on shocks, truss for the front, wheels and tires. I butchered up the 3.8 tmaxx tires trying to narrow them so I ordered the 2.2 mud bashers. I put a little paint on the chassis just to see what it's going to look like. |
