As most of you know I had some issues come up a while back with my family and had to sell my old stuff, so Anthony at CDW was real cool about getting me one of his proto chassies to run, so Id really like to thank him, Brian's hobby land, Wheelinking and the rest of the atlanta guys for the continued support, and friendship "thumbsup"

Now onto the truck, so far im having to run make shift parts to hold me over until I get the right stuff
-Unbent CDW proto chassis
-Home brew 86 jeep style steering
-Colby's Ghetto customs shock mounts :ror:
-Berg axles
-Axial high clearance knuckles
-Big bore shocks in the rear, dunno wtf is upfront but they work!
-Springs are also unknown
-Integy 55t up front, Novak 55t in the rear
-SR3000 RX/ DX3R
-Mamba max
-Punk dig
-Some ghetto 6v BEC from hobby city?
-Hs -7980 servo
-Vanquish SSZ-9 2.2 wheels
-Sedonas with stock foams

I guess thats everything, pretty crappy parts list :cry: But it still kicks ass :twisted:

And the new links and skid that will be going on very soon:

Was going to bend my chassis like Yotachumps to run the pictured skid above, as you can see my skid now is pretty wide, and the links arent bent as good as they need to be:

These are actually pictures I just snapped, and I just got back from one of our local comps. I had a REALLY good run going, until I pulled my bec wire out, while unplugging my battery in a hurry to get out of the rain.. We didnt run finals, due to a downpour. I ended up with a 40 for the day since I couldnt run the last course, but my runs were pretty awesome, for not ever driving this rig until the first course. Again, thanks to everyone for the support through my time here, and I will have a new update soon "thumbsup"

AND A HUGE THANKS TO FISHMAXX FOR ALL THE CRAP HES LET ME USE/GET AND ALL THE TIME HE SPENT HELPING ME GET MY TRUCK TOGETHER!!!! :flipoff:

3) Provided on credit the Proline Bug Bogy
4) Ordered on credit, drilled and ground down the gear box.

and probably 1 or 2 things I have forgot about.
