Will show more next week. If you look carefully there are some obvious improvements shown. Front axle offset and is half nylon, half aluminium. What else can you see ? Also this was the least interesting image from the bunch ;) |

| Re: First Sneak Peek: SSD Trail King - Pro Scale Chassis Builders Kit! C channel rails. Double sheer panhard mount. CMS. Metal knuckles. I’m assuming the new Uni’s too! Last edited by Topher Builds; 05-18-2019 at 04:34 PM. |

Come on man, give us a couple more shots! We are literally itching to give you our money, don’t make us wait/do this whole tease thing. That’s such an Axial/Horizon move. It’s awesome to have strong links, your great new shocks, axle housings, hopefully universal (not CVD) front axle shafts, and I am really hoping for cantilever suspension or something in the rear to allow for a drop bed. Maybe even a kit to change out later? PS - if my taunt above didn’t work (totally sarcastic by the way), then you’ve got some serious self control! But seriously, show us the goods. | |

Looks like he figured out that moving the servo forward also eliminates the panhard/servo horn conflict that plagues the SCX2. Ugh I can’t wait.

The servo is pushed forward & perpendicular to the rails. So something interesting between the shock hoops.

I wonder if that’s going to allow for a forward motor mount? Perhaps a forward low pro battery tray similar to the Samix setup. Edit* SSD are you all on Instagram or FB? Last edited by Topher Builds; 05-18-2019 at 04:40 PM. |

Taunt didnt work. Always planned to post this weekend and the following weeks. I can't take your money yet lol. Will show more next week. Some good guesses above though. Panhard mount is aluminium BTW. |

No we don't have social media pages. As we don't retail we leave that stuff to our main dealers/distributor (RPP, Amain).

| Re: First Sneak Peek: SSD Trail King - Pro Scale Chassis Builders Kit! 313mm in the box. We already sell a 305mm conversion: http://ssd-rc.com/305mm-wheelbase-co...-scx10-ii.html The chassis is capable of 324mm (TRX4 Land Rover) so will probably make some links to support this. |

Nice teaser! I'm liking what I'm seeing so far! Too many cool new rigs to pick from! This may end up being a very expensive year! |
