Hmmm, I'm probably closer to you than I am to Columbia. I'm 30 minutes south of KC.

Status: online 		Mudcow who's in your neck of the woods has an E-Zilla he's turned into a crawler - LINK. His work was rather extensive, but the main idea is to make the axles rigid and lock the axle gears (or make them limited slip.) Then look at lower gearing for the transmission and you'll have a basic crawler.

Status: offline 		i have been looking over many of this thread and noticed that almost no one narrows there tires, that was one of the first things that i did after i got my new chassis and transmission. the more narrow a tire is the better grip it will get.

Most of the drivers at this years USRCCA National Championships used the WIDE MOABS!
