your servo linkage to the dig just helped me a ton. I have the servo mounted the same way, but not the linkage. NICE!!!

DRCMAN...I think Courtney may be running this rig next season.  Sacco... glad it helped!  I have been wanting to try this thing on the rocks with the droop set-up, but there has been no time!:-( Thanks! |

Thanks guys. I finally got the truck out to run the droop set-up. Actually Brandon begged me to go rock crawling, so I ditched work early.    Not sure about the droop set-up. I need to make a delrin skid plate for it. The chassis underbelly got hung up really bad, and wouldn't slide over the rocks very well.  |

The chassis is good and beefy. It is a heavy chassis, that is why I think the droop set-up is best for this chassis. Great welds, and a nice Powder Coat job. This chassis will take a hit, or a big fall for sure. I saw that they are going forward with one of your chassis designs. That's good to see. I may have to try it out too.Tom | |

Great job , that is a really sweet looking crawler Where did you get the Delrin links? they look killer great color combo a longer skid that is (HDPE, Delrin, thin steel, should help Are those Portals strong, how do you like them, is it worth it  looks great

I hope a thin delrin skid will help. I have not really been able to test the Portals in a good comp type situation. They are worth it of you have a rig to put them on. | |

RC4WD has been making parts for over 8 yrs. They do have some flaws, but as with any growing company they will have growing pains. This is a very fast growing part of the hobby, and they want to be the first with everything if they can. They have mouths to feed too. | |
