Looks good, you might want to beef up your steering links. And mount the shocks a little more vertically. I'd go with an old school body maybe....

yeah, i used those steering links because they were already made, when they die, they will be beefed. About the shocks....I know it actually crawls real well, but in a hill climb the body roll is evident, they will most likely be moved in a few. thanks
