Default Hustler2.2 Spy pics

Aaron is just working on the prototype Hustler2.2's and stopped by the other night for me to check it out.

Has mounting holes for both the Stampede, and the R2, and just like it's big brother, it's all droop!

These chassis are a high production product, Aaron has built jigs which took several weeks, to insure each and every chassis comes out perfect. All of the tabs, brackets, and skid plates are Lazer cut.

Not sure if anyone notied yet or not, but all of the body panels are mounted using an actual tab tig welded onto the chassis, unlike most tubers where they just weld a nut to the tube.

I figured you'd like those pics, he actually came up to test fit the R2 tranny, so I figured I'd slam my new Revolver 2 into it.

Yes they do, but just like the big Huslter the springs hold the shocks shut, oppsite of how everyone things they should be.

Nice! I can envision how to hold the spring on the piston, but how is it done on the cap end?
