Reefer stickers are by Autographics and the booya stickers I just had lying around. The number 8 came from a rubicon body.
I'm glad you guys like it...
I just gotta get on the rocks and see what adjustments need to be made.

Not sure, I would say around 10 or 11 lbs.
I'll have to weigh it and get back to you on that.

Thanks Troy.....

I got on the rocks today up at the Mount Baldy Spot. A few of us So. Cal guys met up with Badger and we had some fun.
It did pretty good until I broke a axle.
Other than that it was alot of fun, the 3 link set up worked great!
She has alot of battle scratches now not as pretty anymore, but thats what crawlings all about right?

Pics are coming soon of this trip.

the silver body on the black chassis is just super clean and those silver beadlocks just bring it all together.

that is one sick ride. Ilove it, looks likeit crawls real well. One question, why do you have the front shocks way stiffer than the rear?

I think Black Beadlocks maybe look even cooler. Or not.

Well it was my first time out with this thing. I was'nt really sure where to put them yet.
If I lay the shocks down I get more articulation, yet lose all my clearance and vice versa. I need to find a happy medium. But, first I need to ditch the almost 14" wheel base cause the shorter that is the more clearance I'll get. Also, I wanna be legal for 2.2 comp rules.
I'm gonna shorten the links then mess around with shock placement and stiffness. Any advice in this area is much appreciated.
During this crawl the rear shocks are laid down way to low and I was dragging alot of belly around, but I had sick rear flex.
Should both fronts and rear be laid the same angle?
HELP?
