|  First Build
This is the first truck that I have tried to build. I think it turned out well. (click on the pic for a larger version)    The body has already taken a bit of a beating:  Specs: TLT axles Stampede tranny Bender chassis XRS ESC 55T lathe motor Traxxas lower links Homemade upper links Cheap airplane battery (with which I am quite impressed. Ran it for over an hour today and it was still going strong) Just thought I would share Jeremy |

Thanks for the compliments. I was thinking "RedHorse" with the red bronco body. Also, Deadhorse is an old metal band that I used to love. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm...endid=25772584 (not my page) |

It does well in all types of terrain:   BTW, both of those pics were taken from eye level while standing in the drop off. |

very nice build, you may want to lower your cog just a hair, may crawl even better.  |

It is just at 13" I chopped the body a tad and it still rubs some, but fits nicely.
