Sweet Rig! I love the machine work for the diff pieces. I think it's called a truss? Just like full scale.

diesel,,,yeah the skid really helps if you like to bullnose your way up the side of a rock without bending stuff,,and it really stiffens the axle on the opposing angle,,it can interfere with some angles but ill take the trade off,,i have hit rocks at full throttle and only scratched the skid

i got my front shocks back off of the comp rig so i should have the fronts back on this thing sometime today,,,hopefully get it on some rocks,,it is stupid light weight,,for testing though ill be using whe white rovers on my Eritex wheels from my comp rig,,help keep the cog low..plus having the added weight in the wheels should help get some wheels speed
