That is one nice rig you have put together.

The chassis is quite interesting. Is it just a piece of 'U' channel aluminum with pieces attached on the ends to attach the links and shocks?

That thing looks like it can do some serious crawling, I've always been a fan of the pimp cane crawlers and this one ihas the best of both worlds, very cool.

Last time, with the thin channel, it was twisted too much.

This time, it is a challenge with a thick channel.

I also like pimp cane
low center of gravity,great roadclearance,easy to make,etc.....

I expect the further traction and add the pitch absorber

I complete details early and am looking forward to the test on the rock.

That has to be one of the sickest chassis setups and designs that have caught my eye. I used to have a torsion chassis...and now I have switched to a homemade stick design. This has opened my eyes to the 2 possible chassis integrated into one. Great job!!!

sorry,I am not a pro.
However, it can be made easily.
I made only with the handsaw and the cheap drill.
