nope no steel here....I used carbon fiber rod and tie rod eylets and ball cups....and the wheels are air plan wheels......they are made of aluminum and rubber. i drilled them out and screwed them into a brass square with some antena tubing acting as a nut for both.

Really? I'd think with the 4WD and the 50:50 front to rear power split the front tires would bite enough to keep it down.
Guess not.
