Well, time for the lurker to show his hand. I built this up over the past month, and after much blood and sleep loss, have a working rig. Yes, I know, my pix suck, because my camera sucks, and the good camera is 16 hours away. Specs are as follows:

-Bulu 2 chassis (awesome chassis Toyofast, well worth the wait

)
-TLT-1 Axles, shaved on bottom
-Stampede tranmission
-Masher 2k's on 3-pc Associated rims
-Losi 4" shocks front, T-maxx shocks rear, Losi Pink springs all around
-96mm Traxxas front links, 105mm homebrew rear links
-Integy Lathe Motor
-Duratrax ESC-100 w/40A fuse
-4-wheel steering Hitec HS-425BB servo front, TRaxxas 2019 rear (adequate and wuss)
-4-channel radio (don't fly airplanes around me!!

)
-Proline Dodge truck body for RC10-GT

Here's an in progress pic:

Body mounted, out in the rocks:

Lord Tater approves...

I'm still working out the bugs, as I've only had it crawling twice now. If I can offer one piece of advice to someone building one of these, its to buy yourself a used Traxxas Nitro 4-tec off ebay. Lots of usefull screws, bits, and comes with 4 sets of universal yokes.

Future plans included a Super Rooster and two 645mg servos, and a whole lot of skid-plates

Comments, observations, flames?

not much to say. other than nice crawler. the associated wheels look nice. how wide is your truck? and how long are your lower links including the rod ends?

Yeah, I really dig those AE rims. Black is so much better than chrome.

As it sit right now, the truck is 9 3/4" wide. Links are 111mm in front, 122 in rear, including the rod ends.
