Those driveshafts are going to be at a big angle. It looks good though.

A couple of questions. Does that body have decals with it? Window masks? Also, are you going to keep your stock tires, if you don't have a use for them, I might. Let me know.

ya the body did come with some stickers but im not going to put them on there.
i thought that the drive shafts would be to steep also but i checked it and all was wright.
no i dont have any use for the stock tires but they have little sipes cut into the treads.
