I should get mine tomorrow (I hope!). I'll try and throw up some pics when I get it put together. I'm actually using the same body (Bronco) and wheels as on their site though, so it won't exactly be unique!

I have seen a few of these trucks built up. They look fantastic and the reviews are very positive. I would say ground clearance is from 2" to 3" from what I have heard. If anyone is interested here is a link to their webiste: http://www.teamprpracing.com/tlt.html |

I just finished mine tonight. The 1st pic is the kit as PRP sent it. http://img108.exs.cx/img108/1988/P1010006.jpg My center ground clearance right now is 2 1/8", but the way they set up the shock mounts and such it is somewhat adjustable. http://img108.exs.cx/img108/5554/P1010007.jpg http://img108.exs.cx/img108/8518/P1010008.jpg |

The PRP chassis does leave the gears exposed. However, they provide you a pattern to cut a lexan shield for some protection. I plan on making a few lexan or aluminum skid plates for the bottom of the chassis and the axle "pumpkins." If you were to run this chassis on very small rocks, sand, or mud, I'm not sure how well the gears would hold up. Mine will spend most of its time crawling over my kids' toys in my basement and on larger rocks and obstacles in the yard, so it won't be much of an issue for me |
