Its been awhile since I have updated this thread. First off the dig is the same except I switched out the zipties for something better What was happening with the zip ties is the disconnecting unit that the rod is screwed to was getting pulled down by the head of the zip tie...making it not re-engage. I switched a few parts and added a ziptie to hold the servo in place. I plan on adding my FJ40 body to it also as the pede body is thrashed. It will finally be complete by tomorrow. Ill have some pics outside soon.

And for people wondering how many rigs I have...this is my ONLY crawler. Ive gotten back into racing and also have a JConcepts BJ4, RC10T4, RC10B4, and XXX4.

Im either getting a micro hydro brushless boat or I might build up a scale crawler next. Need some cash before I do anything.

I like it. Good pick on the paint color too. Somtimes I see colors like that on the shelf and think it wouldn't look right but your rig looks really good.

Well today is a sad day :( I finally got out to practice before my first comp and not only did my servo strip but the front chassis plate cracked. I had put a small hole in it to be able to mount a body post(I felt i left enough room around the hole for strength) and im assuming from a few tumbles that I took it cracked. Now I have to figure out a way to mount the front of the body and get this fixed in time for the comp......this sucks! I guess I can try the old JB weld standby for now.

It was rocking though and the front dig worked amazing. I took a few pics and will get them uploaded later on.

Ahhh!!! How do you people afford those rims!!!!?????? Oh, yeah, i forgot. Jamesbernatchez is rich as hell!! Dude, seriously, can you buy me a set for my Jeep? It should make you happier that you actually can have the gift of giving. Or you can give my one of your other rc's so you don't have like 23 rc's or some rediculous amount.
