Well, this truck has been through a few changes lately....you'll get the idea from the pics: After I built the straight front SS links: And with everyone running larger tires, I decided to build myself a set: (next to my old 7" Sedona) Narrowed Blasts: Custom 2-stage Foams: And a pic from our comp today sitting next to my competition: The truck performed extremely well and brought home a 1st!

Dang that picture with both rigs is awesome and those tires are MASSIVE. Guess I need to go make some more tires, I don't know if my 8" rock beasts are going to be big enough. Can't wait compete with you guys in a couple weeks.

When Jeremy came up to Phoenix for the Big Crawler Party (go to AZ section for Backyard Crawl GTG, it's worth checking the pics and vids), that was the night before I began my build. I was chatting with him and commenting how sweet the white looked, and I asked him if mine was the only white Super out there, he said there was one other.....but he didn't say who.... | |

More goodies from Sven: And here's how they go together: (you'll notice the "M" on this plate....for Motor side) Before you bolt on this next piece, you need to slide the servo in: Just a note, these mounts require that you have your link/shock mount bolted to the axle at the inner mounting point.

Dang that thing is looking good. I might have missed it but I didnt see a definitive answer to how tall those tires came out on the blast wheels? |
