Default My TCS Stick Chassis

I never fully did a build thread on this so I figured since it is my next project to finish I would.

Chassis : TCS 16" stick chassis
Motors : Holmes Hobbies Crawlmaster 850kv
ESC: Not yet decided
Axles : Clod with Inet knuckles, and thunder tech cvd'd, axle braces and motor mounts.
Shocks : Integy threaded shocks
Wheel adapters: Ofna 17mm
Wheels : Axial black chrome narrowed too 2"
Tires : Proline Moab's

Still need servo's, 2 esc and another nomadio receiver

looks like your off to a great start with a great setup

why yellow axle cases?
and blue axle tubes
with andonized blue knuckles?

very colorful what color is the body going to be

setup for the esc and radio deicided?

u should set it up with behind the axle steering right away my 2 cents

I'm old model builders and I like to paint everything. This truck has gone through 2 other chassis till this one.

Body don't know yet.
I have a nomadio radio for it just need another receiver for it.

Esc I'm thinking 2 mamba maxx or 2 skyone's

I have a J&M behind the axle steering waiting for it.
