Default Xmod crawler

Ive got 5 1st gen xmods laying around. thinking of turning one into a crawler. im trying to find someone who has done it already for some ideas. thinking of putting 4 link on it but need some help with finding some kind of cv still drive shaft, and gearing it down some. can anyone help me?

I put lego tires on mine and locked the rear, but thereis likely not a way to convert it to solid axle. Pretty much you'd have to ditch everthing but the differentials. And if thats the case, whats the point? Lego tires, locked rear, and a high torque motor, it won't be a crawler, but it'll be a little trail truck.

And whats the deal with the random jeep picture?

Thumbs up Good Idea but very hard

I am sort of in the process of doing that right now. I am using the solid axles from a super slicks 1/43 mt and attaching them to a custom built brass ladder frame. I am going to use the Gen 1 electronics to power it .
