|  My Maxx SAS in progress..... I have been dragging my feet on this project since November.... I have no excuses other than having way to much fun with the TLT  The Maxx started life like this: Super duper T-Maxx with a E-Maxx tranny, big block, lots of nice high end parts and more.   Now, after many months of being one of the best dust collectors... it looks like this:     It's list of items will include: - Rockraider chassis - Maxx tranny perma-locked in 1st, zero slop modification - REVO driveshafts - RCRG Maxx SAS kit - Big arrow links - BFT ballends on upper links - LST ballends on lower links(bigger than BFT) - Integy lathe motor - GD-600 w/ 2:1 gearing - Super Rooster - Hitec HS-5955TG (by the time I finish it they'll be off B/O) .... And probably more problems/money as it gets closer to being finished |

What do you mean like all the others? There is only one other Maxx in the ORCRC group besides mine. Only special twist is that this one is mine  | |

Yep. Currently the rear is only sway bar and stock X-Factor coils. It flexes smoothly and likes to keep things level, just needs more tweaking. Once I get some tires/wheels, better front servo and rear servo and tweak the rear suspension a bit more it should work much better. Although after driving it for the first time on Sunday it did much better than I had expected. | |

| Being a big time Maxx guy myself, your pic finally answered a qustion I had, which was how do you make Maxx independant suspension solid? I have enough parts to put a front and rear axle set together. I will have to see how it turns out before I drop coin on clods axles! |

It's actually a F-350 body and no, I did not paint it. It's one of Atomik's pre-painted bodies. I suck at painting so spending the same amount on a painted body as a non-painted body was the right thing to do. | |
