Looks good! I suspect though that it will look even better once all your parts arrive and get installed. Keep us posted on your progress.

looks good.
you should remove the axle bumpers and modify the body mounts so the body can sit lower.
you will probably find that the gd-600 with laith will be to slow. ;-)

if it'll be to slow for me then i'll just stick with the stock cans, i'm just looking for some real good torquey motor, got some other motors here that i'm trying out.
thanx for the input though :)

Good start kevin!

The commandos will look trick on it! DId you get hte orange ones or the grey? I'd say get a Mag Mayhem or any 20 turn motor, the lathe is just wayy too slow!


Keep us updated!

i think it'll be the orange not to sure, its on backorder from towerhobbies.
(might cancel it and look somewhere else)....
i'll keep u guys posted:)

Location: moving to "sin-city"

Are you really?

yup, my wife and I is in the process of getting a house there b4 its too late (prices soaring toooo fast)...
and so i can play with my rc trucks:)

I thought the same thing but I can't find them in stock anywere. I'd say find a set first then cancel.

Looking good, very clean build!! Got any body off shots?

Actually I do got some pics w/out the body i'll post them up also...

Here's some off body shots :)
Still needs some more work.

Lookin good Kevin. I take it the rings worked out ok for you ;-)

Thanks guys for the compliments... if it wasn't for everyone here and this website, i'd be scratching my head. ;)
RCALLOYS; the ring adapters is great, Thanx again

Let us know when you get into town. Truck looks great!

AK a little too cold for ya?

Getting tired of this frikkin rain & snow. i need some sun:)

Finally got the "bling-bling" wheels :mrgreen: . So went to do some crawlin'.
These Moabs is like velcro, alot of biting grip. Seems way better than my other set of wheels(LST's)IMO

Looks sweet, I think that's the first set of wheels with silver beadlocks that I've seen bolted up to a rig.

Looks good, I would suggest moving your electronics down inside the front of the frame to help lower the center of gravity and keep weight up front to help fight torque twist.

Thanks... Yeah I'm using thicker shock oil and stiffer springs and still torque twist,
I'm gonna move all my electronics towards the front. And see how it goes.
Thanks for the advice ;-)
