Sorry for the delay, here's the pics.     Suggestions? The XRS Speed Controler will be mounted soon, I'll get a antenna mount, clean the wiring up and have the body mounted next set of pictures. Did I mention Engine Brake?  Body is painted with Tamiya Racing Green and Black, will get pics of it when I finish stickering it tonight. Say something! lol |

UPDATE!! ESC is installed (XRS) and she crawls!! I just realized that I need to lock the diff in the Stampede Tranny, and it will crawl a LOT better. Gonna redo the steering links on the front and rear, and trash the bullbar to improve the approach angle...not to mention adding a skidplate to the tranny. Pics will be posted later today when I get the body mounted (need longer rear body posts).

Yep, I love her. Was crawlin around the shop today, and I decided that I need to lock the Stampede diff, update to the new gears (the ones that have the hole for the set screw), and mount the body. lol Also ordered a set of soft foams for the tires. Hopefully my new wheels will be in soon also. I'm gonna try to get a camera the next couple days and get a video. |

| Re: Scale Crawler (TJ Jeep) With Pics!!    Got my wheels/foams in, and the rear body posts are on their way. Body is 'almost' mounted, I've got the body set up on a wheel (look through the front window in the rock pictures). |

DuraTrax Thunder Quake Body Posts. Since they're DuraTrax shock towers, might as well use the body posts too. lol
