the reason for the offset window brace is for clearance with gd600 and motor.

I havent spent much time on this project lately so ill update,Finished cage(1 more support and shock mounts,but need more rod) so I went ahead and bolted everything up to and threw on tires to find out were to mount shock's and install maxx 2.5 shafts....I still havent found a 55t but I did score a 35T Im hoping that will be plenty with a gd600.
I know the front is backwards but I dont even have the drive pins in.just mocking up shocks and shafts.
