It's what you might call the 3 way between a wraith a yeti and a deadbolt. So I adapted some parts I had lying around cause I hate to be wasteful and this is what I came up with. Deadbolt body on a yeti roll cage with a wraith drivetrain and skid. Chassis is a rc4wd unit but it's hard to fit that in the name.

The body fit the cage surprisingly well. But the cage was a bit wider so some light trimming was required

For now I'm just using a bobbed wraith bumper but I plan on building one from metal tube soon.

The under side I used the wraith skid with custom aluminum skid pans for each side. You can barely see the frame tucked in there.

How does the rear flex? with the upper links mounted that way it has to really limit the droop. Other than that it is a good looking rig
 
Thanks fellas! It actually has great flex and is really only limited by the rear shocks contacting the upper shock mount but I plan on flipping the shocks upside down.
