Default And another! Now with pics!

I am just waiting on the snailman to deliver all the goodies I got for my "MAXX ASSAULT" crawler. Soon I'll need to enlarge the garage to put them all, yeah like the wife will let me do that. Pictures coming soon.

Ok, it's been awhile waiting on the snailman and my biddng, but the axles are fianlly ready to go. Not as nice as Twisted's customs, but I am still proud of them! Spooled, MIP CVDed, locked and lower link mounts installed. Hopefully this weekend I can get the chassis built and get this thing on the rocks next week.!?
The Saga continues................

looks good. That thing is gonna have some very nice clearance with the LST's. They will add about 1 1/8" of clearance.

Talking LSTs arrived!

I got my LSTs today, peeled them off the stock rims, narrowed some stock maxx wheels and mounted them up. What a differance! 4 3/4" under the axles and 5 1/4" under the chassis. I should be getting a Rock pleaser or Jeep body soon, just need to make up my mind. Revo axles are on thier way to complete the truck.
