A bit stiff, but I had the helper springs installed. Going to leave them on since all of my detailing and body mods will add weight. I was expecting there to be a lot of slop in the transmission because of the 2 speed, but I was pleasantly surprised. It changes direction pretty well.

Great stuff, I like the slo-mo launch at the end! How is the access for the battery? It looks like the cab is firmly screwed into place, and the bed is screwed to the cab.

That's how it's mounted. I'm only running 2 out of the 4 cab bolts to speed things up.

Truck looks great n00b! Wish you could have made it to my place for the comp today. Had some trails you would have loved!

BTW, once again, I like your music choice. Who is it this time?

I wish I could've made it too. I only had enough time this morning to drive out by my house. I'll get out to your place one of these days. The band is Russian Circles.

So far so good. I've only been running 2s through it, but I know it can handle much more.
