Default Makin changes to new creeper

This is what I started with, looked like it was going to do fairly good on the rocks... Wrong, it rolled over easily and wouldn't think of climbing vertical. The front tire wanted to pick up every time you forward.
So anyway I need to make changes, here is a little of what I got so far...

I think this might work for what I got.

GC is just under two in at the belly and only stands 6 1/2 tall.
Forgot what the real difference was between the 44's and 54's, the rovers are from my other truck until I get new shoes for it.
Specs:
45turn hand wound ckrc brush motor
Tekin fxr esc
Bec for the motor
Al. Front c's and knuckles
Al. Rear lockouts
Al. Wheels came with it ( but still need weight)
Edge chaise
Jr receiver

These tires are weighted. The only thing I don't like is the nose on the front hits the servo when compressed down. You can see the shocks are not all the way in. I have some aluminum angle back home that I have made servo guards for in the past.

Well this is what I got, gonna test it at a comp in central Texas this weekend. Let me know what y'all think.
