| My XL4 TLT
This is something I though together this past weekend, Locked TLT axles B4 trans locked Maxx2.5 driveshafts XL4 chassis 55T lathe TR2 JR125mg servo United 1100 7 cell pack Delrin links Moabs on home made wheels and bead locks Traxxas big bore aluminum shocks with Losi red springs And topped off with a HPI Baja Bug body This thing has a silly low COG, I took it up to HobbyTown today for a little run down. It works great. Can't wait for the comp on the 24th to really tyr it out. |

Well now that your a vendor, you need to get a vendors page together w/ prices and available options. I'm sure you'll sell a ton of chassis and wheels. Glad I could do the testing for you! Awesome chassis! Can't wait to get a set of wheels to try out! Congrats! Dez |
