Still waiting on the headlights and taillights.
Looks really cool. How well are they lighting up the trail? Seems some night crawling is in your future

I got out for about 10 mins tonight. They do a really good job smog. Hard to go wrong for $15.

I've been considering this as well. By the looks of the spring compression on the pink springs static, my guess is you'll need to go up at least one stage. Let us know what you find.

Actually, she did extremely well on the soft pinks today. I'm gonna take her out for another day on the pinks before I play with anything, cuz she was unstoppable today

Cool shocks! Might have to look into those!

Added Samix lower brass shock caps. Raised the sliders and trimmed the body. Also removed the Titan and replaced with the Holmes 550 21T.
My 1080 ESC Mount and front bumper mount for the rear comes today.
Looking for a bumper combo and need to add some lights, so I can tool around in the dark.

Unfortunately that mount puts the button in the most hard to reach place possible. If he'd just put it on the other side of the ESC (like the one I got off thingiverse) you might actually be able to reach it from the wheel well.

I had the option to put it on that side, if you just rotate it, you’re able to. I liked it in this spot, and I can’t fit my finger in there anyway with the under fenders.

Fitted a new metal bumper to my sport assembly kit. First time cutting lexan, not perfect but OK.

Finally had a moment to get the headlights and taillights installed on the FJ body. I think i'm sufficiently lit for some night trailing and crawling with this body now.

Headlights, fog lamps, light bar, rock lights, taillights - Check!
