I thought you bought those aluminum rc4wd axles for that when they was first released .. Oh and the 1:1 pics are awesome that thing really looks good.. Are you gonna put bump stops on ur rig like the 1:1 and are you gonna use the jeep body for yours also.. I'm subscribing to this build.. Now get on it josh lol
