More progress on my K-5 Blazer, the wheelbase ended up being 11 7/16" witch is perfect for me"thumbsup" Had to move the tranny forward one whole so the balance is great. Here's another slide show with updated pics:mrgreen:

Why do you have two threads for one thing? You have an exact copy of this floating around the scx-10 forum.

Looks like a capable rig. Watching your son run his rig was very cool. He does a great job for his age. Awesome. "thumbsup"

Well because it's a 1.9 based rig and a brand specific Axial scx10 and I was torn on we're to place it so I just threw it up on both
