|  My tube maxx (56k beware) This is TC's old rig. I traded for some clod junk. I wanted to see what all the fuss was about with the shafties. It's fun. This rig steers 1000000 times better than the clod ever did. But I keep breaking stuff. I broke a CVD and a side diff output so far, only a handful of rus in the Nylint rock course in the backyard! Specs are on my site http://www.toyotaoffroad.net/afertig/88/maxx.htm Pics When I first started building it  Welded on some shock mount tabs  Got it running   Broke a CVD  New paint and decals  Crawlin in the Nylint course  Started raining so I took it in the garage!  Busted the side diff output!  It's pretty much finished. I can't wait to do some real crawling! See what else I can break! |

| The bench shots are poseur pics, the rest are for real. The battery is mounted to the front of the chassis if you look closely. I think the battery might have slipped to the passenger side in some of those shots, I have it rigged in there until I can find my darn velcro straps. |
