MERICA!
Just picked up a Mattzilla 1.9 chassis and it's time to have another build. I know this should prolly be in the U4 section but this 1.9 section gets more attention, and it's gonna be 1.9. This will most likely be slow and expensive build.

This is the parts I'm planning to use in my build.

Transmission:
-rc4wd 2 speed tranny
-robinson racing steel spur gear
-HV shift servo(not sure what servo yet)

Or I might just use a built up wraith tranny.

Axles:
-stock scx10 axle cases
-grip fab lockers
-axial HD gears
-front axle wide xr mod with wraith chubs and knuckles and axial xr universals
-rear axle aluminum lock outs
-mip wraith driveshafts

electronics:
-Mamba X esc
-castle 1410 4600kv motor
-Hitec servo 7955tg (not sure yet)

Wheel/tire:
-vanquish 1.9 orange methods
-1.9 growlers
-wide vanquish rear hubs to match front width
 
All I got for now is the 2 speed tranny, waiting on other parts.

-xr10 axle shafts
-axial hd gears (38/13)
-grip fab locker
-wraith lockouts

Suspension:
-Gmade piggy back shocks (93mm)

Thanx. My motor and esc should be here this week then it should be ready for a test run. Still need servo mounts and wheels and tires. What would be good tires?
 
Those wheels are nice .... but the ones you have in those rock beast look bad ass also.
 
Yea I love those rims in the pictures but those are for my scx10 and I want aluminum wheels for this build to keep weight down as much as I can with that steel cage. I really want vanquish rims but I can get all four Boomracing wheels for the price of two vanquish and I still need hubs. IDK I can't make up my mind haha.
 
Got the power today.

This new esc is built way nicer than the MMP was this one appears to be all metal with hex hardware. I still don't care for the new sensor wire set up but oh well.
 
Great build. How do you like those gmade piggybacks? I thought about getting a set for the rock racer i am building but have yet to run gmades
