Default New B Maxx crawler build

Hey I am new here & I have been lurking around & seeing what everyone else is doing with their Maxx. This is a great site with tons of info & where I got most of my ideas from.
My buddy gave me dead 2.5 TMaxx so I robbed most of the parts for this build from it. Still looking for a trans so I can finish it up. Here are a few pics of it.

Looks like you are off to a good start. Something i would change is moove the lower shock mount to a different mount so you dont have a hole throught the link.

well got it running today. Have a few bugs to work out but noting major. Anyone know where I can get a 9T 32p pinion gear for a 3.2 shaft?
Here are a few pics, no action pics yet!

thanks, those are 40 series Axial wheels narrowed an inch with holy roller rings.
Did some testing yesterday & pretty happy for the first run.
Found this rock pile right down the street from my house.

Thanks, the cage is what's left of one of those TMaxx roll cages. I cut it up & welded a few new bars here & there. A lot easier than starting from scratch. One day I might build a chassie from scratch but this thing works pretty darn good so I will leave it as is for now.
