|  New SW2 TLT Comp rig Nothing fancy, just another SW2 comp crawler with a slightly different link setup. I built this truck in one night (until 4:00 am) before the last comp, only to break 2 axle shafts in less then 3 minutes of running.  Here are the specs: 12.5" WB 10" track width 2.5" center clearance ~8.5" max height of cab Bender Customs chassis set up 70/30 (almost 75/25) Custom Carbon Fiber Links TLT-1 Axles locked diffs Stampede trany w/Jato shafts, 120T 64P spur 55t Lathe Motor, 16t 64P pinion Proline Moab tires Pede rims double narrowed w/rock rings 2 wheel steering Traxxax big bore shocks Jeep CJ8 body off my TXT, then Clod (this body is nearly 2 years old with a history of abuse) 4 oz of bb's in each tire Futaba 3ch 72 Mhz FM receiver Airtronics 94359 Servo Spare maxx drive shaft and Tamiya wrench on the body Working on a few additions before the next comp, the body will also be lowered about 1/4" to 1/2".

| I like it. damn you have put that cj through some hell. do you find that it performs better with the 70/30 instead of a 50/50. |

| That's a nice rig badger, Is this the comp rig you mentioned when I last talked to you? 70/30 setup makes it look very proportional with that hacked up body. |
