Well decided to bring this truck back to life. I had sold the chassis as a rtr and kept the body. So now im rebuilding it with a few updates. Going to go with the NCYota axles since i was not very impressed with the stock tf2 axles. I have only gathered up the new wheels and tires and a tf2 chassis so far. Other parts should start arriving soon.

Got a roller....



90 mm superlift shocks with 5k cst fluid all way around with internal springs removed



These knuckles look like they arent going to work. Going to try the bowhouse rc double shear knuckles, i think they are supposed to give more room for tires

A TF2 with Bowhouse parts and Superlift shocks and Pitbull tires on SSD wheels from Raleigh. Is this your build thread or mine?

Orange winch line because it just looks more official. Even though i dont even have a controller for the winch yet.

Anyone have any recommendations on winch controllers? Ive never used one




SSD scale hubs. To bad i dont have the tool to install them yet.
