Well, I want to run the Moabs for the traction, so if you figure they are 5.5" tall x 8 = 44". I'm running 42" tires, but this is damn close. I started with the tires and then figured out the rest. The tires is what determined the scale I was going to build.

Good idea. You shoul build it out of .25" solid aluminum round rod? that would be sick, but still have a good COG.

Now does it flex at all? Or is it stiff?

The chassis flexes very little, but the weight is balanced almost perfect, so it just floats over everything.
