Did a little more work. I rebuilt the axle as I wanted high clearance links and to get the body a little more centered. I'm hoping it will hold up but due to how this gets run it probably won't. I plan on picking up an aluminum housing and using that as I'm sure it will be more durable as I can drill and tap the housing and I'm sure the screws are less likely to pull out.

Next up is bell crank stearing and inner fenders. Also I think I'm going to get an ascender rx box. I also am going to work on the interior more with some flat clear coat for the seats and start adding some scale items.

Yes total hybrid is the plan. The axle I changed because it helps with the torque twist the twin hammers is plagued by. It's pretty much gone now. I took it out for a good beat run and it works great. I did however manage to lose a drive shaft. Somebody forgot to locktite the set screws! Doh!

Did a little crawling yesterday. Was a good time. Crawled better than I expected.

Made a bracket to mount the bellcranks and made shafts for the bellcranks.
