| Keeping up with the times,,,
First off,,i would like to send out a HUGE THANKS to Tom from RC4WD for making this possible,,,back before christmas i had messaged Tom via email regarding my plans to build a new super with the Super Bully XLD axle's with the 65-1 case's,,at that time RC4WD didnt offer the XLD's with the 65-1 case's.. after a few emails Tom was more than willing to help me out with a set of XLD's with 65-1 case's.. so again,, THANK YOU SO MUCH Tom,,, so after getting the axles i went to work talking with my chassis guy over at TURBO-TECH Customs regarding a chassis,,i was hoping i would be able to use my EVIL-1 chassis he had made for my shafty super as seen in the past,,TURBO had felt that the EVIL-1 would be perfect for an M.O.A based rig and I would be ok,,so I kept it,,, specs,,, axles = RC4WD 65-1 XLD's chassis = TURBO-TECH Customs EVIL-1 tires and wheels = Super Beast's on Hpi Tremmors,, narrowed Meat Grinders on Hpi Tremmors,, narrowed Plow boys on Hpi Blast's,,or narrowed ss Plow boy's on Hpi Blasts links = TURBO-TECH Customs high clearance lower links,,Traxxas uppers all with Revo or Jato ends steering = TURBO-TECH Customs Super Bully Steering arms with ROCKHUMPER ends ( made for XLD's ) servo mounts = Ripper777 ( waiting on the mail ) shock's = Hpi hex's = 17mm associated Rc8t with 10mm off set servos = JR 8711's for now,, ( will be upgrading when funds replenish them selves ) esc's = dual FXR's motors= 35t Tekins bec = castle pro tx-rx = 4pk pics of roller= |

Looks sweet, I like that axial body. What did your track width end up at?

Good lookin build there Dez. I tried a set of those tires out this last weekend. They are half pins and half plowboy and they seemed to work real nice. I had to get used to the ground clearance though, I'm used to the 8" tall rovers. |

Dez, I'm surprized to see that the SuperShafty is gone too. But still glad to see your SuperBully is coming together so nicely. |

Are those the CEN racing wheels? 5"ers. And I'm confused, is it silver, green, purple, or grey between the copper side panels |
