I'm changing to a single lipo mount and adding rock sliders to get a more scale and better look.
I used the rear bumper to a Traxxas Slayer Pro.

Because this is a rock buggy I wanted everything to be plastic so that it doesn't get hung up in the rocks I also am going with only 1 lipo to run this buggy to keep the weight down and also to get the bottom a lot cleaner so that it doesn't hang up also.

After I got home from running my 1/5 Summit build I checked the mail box and found the Teckno V3 lipo tray!
So it took a hole 5 min. to install.



The lipo is a old 4s 4000 mah.

Here is a peak at the wheel base. It ended up being 17.5'' and that is ok by me!


I found a bent shock shaft, so I installed some Titanium shafts to all four shocks.

When was the last time you seen a Build this clean?
I'm waiting on the pair of SMC 2s 9000mah 60c lipos to install. The wheels are getting RC4WD 8.58" Roclox tires mounted to the steel Beadlock rims.
I have some new lights on the way and the painting of a few cage parts are also in the works. I will cut some lenses for the rear lights just as I have done in the past.
It's getting close folks!
The owner wants it done before The 4th of July. I will be done next week.

8.5/8'' tires look great on this build. The beadlock rims are sweet as well!

THEY MAKE MY 1/5 SCALE TIRES LOOK SMALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
