Default Project Large FOFF

I've got a muggy sitting around with a 1717 and an XL-2 and I'm forever considering selling it, but I've beaten the crap out of it so I know I'll never get even close to what I have into it back.

So I've been trying to come up with something to do with it, and I think FOFF sounds about right. First I figured I could make a Yeti XL-similar set up, but why stop at rear axles only...when it's more fun to have both front and rear? I guess that's why I'm posting, I searched far and wide online and can't find anyone doing a center motor with front and rear axles that are 1/8 or bigger.

Yeti XL axles front and rear, custom knuckles to steer out front....is it even possible? Seems to me it will be a lot of work, but it's winter so time is my friend.

Obviously all I will salvage from the truck as it currently sits is the electronics and the suspension, maybe even the center shafts...the rest I'll scrap I guess.

Ideas before I start slicing away at it?

Scratch that....found a build to follow. Look like the chassis was never mass produced, but the super shafty Hammah looks like it would have been the ticket. And of course, kyosho axles and knuckles. although I'm tempted to still use the yeti axles for additional width.
