Default LeeSc10's Twin Hammers

Got this in a trade today. Some might recognize it as its briansbodies' old one. Has a great list of mods done to it already...

mods as follows...
lockers front and rear, Vanquish rear trailing arms, Vanquish titanium rear links, GCM rear axle truss, GCM front upright shock plate, GCM top cage, Carter Fab hood, side and number panels, Gmade piggy back shocks (85mm front, 103mm rear) 1.9 CAC ONE9 Six Spoke wheels with Pro-Line Flat Irons, Cut hood cage to swing forward to put battery over front axle, HiTec steering and shift servos. Will be running a Holmes Hobbies TrailMaster BL 540 13.5 Crawler motor with a Novak Havoc Pro SC esc. Haven't got any future plans for as of right now. But I'm sure I will find stuff to do to it.

Here are a few pics...

Looking at these two options for batterys...

Turnigy nano-tech Shorty 4200mah 2S2P 65~130C Hardcase Lipo Pack (ROAR APPROVED)

Turnigy nano-tech 2200mah 2S 40~80C Lipo Pack (TRA2820 Traxxas 1/16 models)

Leaning towards the first one though.

The 4200 fits perfectly across the back. The one I got had enough charge for 20min of bashing right out of the box!

I was planning on running it up front on the GCM upright shock plate. Will that fit there?

Have you noticed any increase in steering with the aluminum castor blocks and knuckles? Or are they stock dimensions?

I really don't have anything to compare them to. When I got this they were already on it. But they are real smooth. Still messing with the tuning on them though.

Little update. Not to much going on with this right now after getting the Wringo chassis. But I think I found the motor I am gonna use. Got a Novak Ballistic 13.5 Crawler motor coming. That will work with the Novak esc I already have. Also got a 17.5 Hobbywing esc and motor coming. So I will have a couple options to mess with.

Hey lee you have any problem popping the front drive shafts out of the cups? I have GCM 85mm aereos and I keep popping them going to put in some limiters so they down extend so far out.
