If you drive it right, IT WILL BREAK.. ALL THE TIME..
I thought I could compete with mine, but I was wrong.. I even welded gears, replaced outer axle shafts and still CRAP...
I have tried to call Graig many times to try to help him make this rig better but I guess Globle Dist. dosent care about making a good, competitive Super Class Crawler
Makes an awesome shelf queen though

The best thing about the x crawler are the axles. Trust me when I tell you that the chassis, shocks and links are all crap. Fix the axles and beat them until they no longer work.
