| New Pimp build up
Well, got the 12.5 Pimp Cane a few days ago to replace the 4-link I was running and have put most of it together (waiting to find a Tekin Rebel 2). I haven't figured out a way to mount the body yet, but the rest is going together well. I plan on raising the body to clear the steering and tires, but haven't decided on side posts or two posts in the middle. I can't wait to crawl with this thing, the balance seems to be far better than any other chassis I have tried(in my limited time in the crawler world). A big thumbs up and thank you to Run2Jeepn for provideing this bada$$ set up for such a low price! Any advice or suggestions are most welcome. Just for fun, hangin' by one tire edge! |

Pretty much everyone runs 2 Body post with the PC...Slam that body as low as it can go. Then trim it to the Spec's for the 2.2 Class. Also a good tip to do is get some foam and slide over the body post. Get it where you have to smash the foam down to mount the body. Keeps the body from flopping around while crawling.

I had a body similar to that when I first got my Pimp Cane. Ran a tall body post in the rear and a short one up front and then trimmed the hell out of the body! |
