I've been working, here is what I have so far. I'm pretty much there but I need to make a skid and I have a different servo mount on the way that I want to try to hopefully get the servo lower and the battery on the axle. I also am really wanting to get the new Losi tires for it. I will also probably get some ti links soon. Just a suggestion, for those of you who are building these and are using axle c's or rc4wd rear lock outs you will probably want to trim about 3-4mm of the thread off of the lower links before you assemble everything. Mine sat at about 13" before I cut them down. Now its exactly 12.5". Also, I usually run the shocks on my comp rigs upside-down but I noticed that it didn't want to articulate with just the fuel tubing in them. By turning them the right way it articulated perfectly. I got to drive it for about 5 min today and I was impressed. I love the amount of articulation, in my opinion the perfect amount. The first issue I had was that the servo sticks out too far in front of the axle and the horn hits stuff. Hopefully the new servo mount will fix that, if not I will have to figure something else out because the last thing I want is the servo horn to break off in the middle of a comp. Onto the pics     |

At the last comp I saw Dirk379's crawler, at least I think it was his. It looks a lot like a Hustler and he had while panels on it that looked great. Anyway, I didn't want a straight copy so I threw the red lines in it. | |

looks great zach. Go to Mcmaster carr and get this for the skid. part number 7701T114 As far as the servo sticking out, I wouldn't sweat it too much with that servo and the aluminum horn. If the horn bends just remove it and straighten it out. |
