|  2.2 Tuber done... lotsa pics.
Got it back from the powder coaters... black chrome is the color. - Built from 3/16 brake line, brazed as always. - Belly pan made from .064 aluminum. R2 and lower links mount to it. Upper links mount to chassis. - Lower links are revo ends, 8/32 all thread and steel sleeved - Upper links are maxx ends, 6/32 all thread and carbon fiber sleeved (just because it looks cool). - Rear servo mount for dig setup. (should work with R2 disco also.) - All panels bolt on with 4/40 SS button heads and are mode out of pretty beefy lexan. - TLT shocks for now, I have others on thier way. - Suspension setup for droop but could be converted to sprung if I want to as some point. -Wheels 1" wide aluminum beadlocks (weighted in front), kreepy foams, LOSI rock claws. 1/8" air hole.   Posers....   Close up. (ummmmm..... black chrome)  Front 4 link setup. (is that a hood? do we need a ruling on this one?)   Rear 4 link....  |

LOL, thats pretty funny. Good work. I'll be honest I didn't even look at the specs, do you plan to paint the panels?

That looks sweet, It would look sweeter if you turned the tlt shocks down.

Wow i like it alot, very good work. Looks awesome, love the wheel/tire combo. what wheels are those? As far as the hood... Im not a nat's judge but i would say it would work because you still have a full hood, its just not all covered with lexan. |

Looks great. If I were to paint to the panels, I would just go with black or gunmetal.......or pink. |
