Default Outing with my Goliath-TLT hybrid

I didn't really know where to post this, becuase it's really not a TLT.

Any way

specs:
-PTI Goliath chassis and static trany
-TLT axles (locked)
-home made links
-GD-600
-55T laith motor
-2.2 Moab tires wrapped around Stampede rear wheels

on to the pictures















the end

That place looks fun!

I would call it a tlt, cause it has the axles. I feel that axles really make the build, as a tranny just gears down. Axles determine the tires, width, length (to a degree), a power handling.

Agreed. Moved to TLT Crawlers.

Nice looking build.

The ring gears in the goliath axles aren't strong enough for serious crawling....so I ditched them for TLT axles....and the TLT chassis sucks so it worked out in th end.
