Default chassis?

Im looking at getting a new chassis for my tlt. rite now im running a modded tracer with pede trans and don't like it. I want something with a little lower COG with a little more clearance as of rite now i only have like 2in of center clearance. I also want something that is comp worthy. So what do you guys recommend?

Take a look in the venders section. Bender's is in there as well as a few other really good ones.

The GC-1 made by Gatekeeper is another good choice.

You just asked the question that will get you at least 30 different answers. There is plenty of information on different chassis here. There are also several different prices and so on. Dig thru the TLT section and the Vendor section. Make a judgement on what you think will fit your price and get the looks you want!

Good Luck!

I like the SW3. It is simple and it works. Awsome craftsmanship! Please inform yourself before you make a decision....trial and error can be costly!!!

My latest WK build is using this chassis too.

I think this is the most complete list of chassis available.
check them out and see which you'd like to run. All or most are very capable.
