I started off getting the JP chassis together and the 1st thing I saw that I wanted to do is round off the middle of the skid a little. I think this will help a little.

Here's the front axle with the RC4WD sterring kit on it. I like the way it went together.

Rig looks great so far. Please keep us updated on out it runs, especially if there is enough drag break. I am building a crawler with almost an identical setup, and am not sure whether to wait for the new PunkRC dig switch with a built in drag break or if the Castle ESC's have enough...

It's a roller, I really like this Hell strom chassis, it has lots of adjustment holes, it lite but strong too. JP's machinest did a nice job on it. The JP lower links fit nice.I did round the top of the uppers where it meets the chassis so it didn't hang up during articulation.
I havn't put the uppers on yet, waiting to get it dailed in a little more so if I need to cut them I can. I like to use adjustable uppers until I fine the set-up I like.

I forgot the articulation shot, it has a nice smooth flow during suspension travel.
