Default Noob Crawler with WK

I'm a noob when it comes to crawling so I had this WK and am tired of riding wheelies. When I found the HPI tutorial I though "I can do that" so Here's some info and pics on my WK. I'll update as I go, hardest thing has really been sorting out what size,dimensions,part numbers to get for various things.

Mine started out as a 4WD with a intellispeed esc that I had put in and a 20 turn motor.

Step one was to replace motor and use a 55 t integy.
Step 2 was to install rear locker (very much needed)
3 install front locker (won't steer any more)
Reverse the chassis (steering is worse now)
4 Use a stronger servo (better, but still no good)
Try some Talon tires (not much good)
Stock tires on narrow wheels and use them backwards (works pretty good)
Use lipo batery (too light)
