| cheaply upgrade to brushless and bronco
He guys, I just got handed another venom creeper. Perfect timing to as I just acquired a real 1974 Bronco sport that I'm restoring. I saw that proline makes a 73 bronco body that seems to fit the creeper. I don't want to spend any crazy amount of money on the creeper so I was hoping to get some good advice from you guys. All I want is, waterproof, Lipo, brushless. Then whatever will make the body fit. I don't want to do any crazy reworking of the driveline, but I was thinking maybe something that will let me move the shocks more upright to give It a bit more of a scaler look. Otherwise I think that's it. Brushless and lipo should give me more wheel speed. Nothing crazy, I have an e-revo and slash to get my speed fix. It's just going to be a basher and sit in my RL bronco. |

Well, you will either want the Safari chassis rails or make your own. That will allow you to mount a body and shocks upright. -Corrupt |

Ditch the creeper trans and chassis and put your axles under an scx10 chassis and trans. The trans is far more apt to handle brushless and its not a PITA to work on like the stock one. That will get you pretty close to what your looking for and there are a ton of aftermarket bumper options available for the scx10 platform.

I do think I like the look of the scx10 chassis better. the creeper trans though is not good? are there other trans I should be looking at as well or is the scx10 the easiest option. I'm a traxxas guy so I have tons of rustler/stampede/slash parts These crawlers are a new animal to me.
