Default More pic's

Just finished the front driveline. Got my rock rings in today. I need to solder everything up battery, motor, moped. Install rock rings and paint the body. I might get a chance to crawl this weekend with out the body. Sorry for the poser shots but without having the rings mounted yet they just fell off.

That's my theme for this one. I try yo do a theme with all my crawlers. I've got about 3 more in the works from clod axles, x-factor axles & emaxx axles crawlers.

why so much caster? Your steering links are going to take a beating.

I need to make the upper links shorter. And beefup the steering links. I measured the uppers wrong.
