Default cc01 snowboarder build

Hey guys, on my second build, got all the parts yesterday.
-2x Xgames mini snowboards
-1.9 rc4wd steelies and mud thrashers
-proline winch
-80mm rc4wd shocks
and a bunch of accessories
Jeep CC01 kit should be here in a few days then ill start the build, going for a snowboarder vehicle it should come out pretty sweet.
STAY TUNED!

It just so happens that I took my son to Toys R Us today to use a gift card he had and I found the snowboards, had to pick up two for the future.

No pics, they are for an undecided future build. Most likely will be another Jeep though with custom roof rack for the boards. Kind of the same idea that I think you have going. Will probably be a CC-01 chassis though.

The boards are both Burton, kinda biased towards them. (Many years ago that is what I rode). Do a search for Burton Safari 175 and see what comes up, you may get a clue to how old I am. I still have it, to bad the plastic on the bindings is shot. Also check out the Burton Performer, wish I still had that board.

How stiff are they? My CC-01 is pretty heavy with the body brackets and electronics box, so they might work ok on mine..

wih factory springs I put my CC01 rear on a scale and just to make them move a little it took almost 3/4s of a pound..to bottom them out it took almost 6 pounds..that's a lot for our rigs...I also tried out MRC crawler shocks..to soft for me..I ended up getting envader shocks by duratrax from a member here, lots of springs to choose from and they are adjustable, I got 4 front shocks.

Default jeep

I'm tempted to get one of these kits now.

I keep debating between a jeep build and a land rover.
