Default Project "Ugly wagon"

Before this afternoon I'd never even see a txt in real life. I got my tranny with gd600 and a set of locked txt axles off ebay from ups at 4 and this is what I had by 5. Theres a firts attempt at everything I hope I don't F it up too bad. I'm sticking with the stock can by advice of this forum and I have an SR and 645mg's lined up for it. any comments or changes recomended during the build appreciated. I have a debate in my head about going to savage shocks or keeping with the maxx's i so often use.

Here's what I have so far.

Depends on what you plan on doing with the chassis. If you are going to just add some shock tabs, then you are in a different boat than if you plan on making shock towers. I would make towers and run savages. I had maxx shocks on mine for about a week until my savages got here.

I think i'm going to make towers. I love the look of the tall shocks. From what I've read so far they're so smooth.

And they get caught on protruding objects.
