Here is mine TLT / Clod crawler, it's not ready yet but a good start.




The links are custom build, only the bottem ones so far.

Doesn't using the whole chassis cut down on your ground clearance? Maybe you should trim it some.

I showed you a picture what youi can do with this chassis, it will make the chassis much more capable and stable than this set-up.(ik ben Freaky)
100% zeker/sure

What? a ripper pro,
man you realy have to do some research on somne stuff first.
Is this gonna be a crawler or racer?
the TT ripper pro is a race chassis and wont hold up to those nasty crawler situations

But now on topic please ;)
this is a usefull tip i think for all of you that wanna use the tlt plates as a base for a good crawlewr chassis:
