Standard LB issue truck servo, S3305 metal gear... it will be installed in the stock location.. so it will be driving both front and rear steering...
Running the FM RX, instead of another 2.4GHz... so I can run the TXT (2.4GHz) and Clod at the SAME TIME... that's the goal.. ha!

Both axles are completed..
The pic is of the rear axle.. dial in some toe-in there for some stability... !!
Just waiting for one more piece of aftermarket item tomorrow.. then the Clod can be completed!! (well, I need to figure out what shocks to use... [:@])

You can just look at the build thread.. show you everything... hee hee...
Nah, I would never say something like a TLT is a "legend".. (not yet!)
Clod has been around for 20+ yrs.. that's a legend there! As the first monster truck!!

I bet you say that about all the kits

RE: Super Clod Buster Build-up Thread
I will make it up as it goes.. probably mount it inside of the chassis so from the outside it looks stock.. just one battery wire.. but I will use 2 straps inside to hold the 2nd battery.. hee hee..
Stock looking Clod -> not so stock...

Spread the load better so you won't snap the axle-Cs....

RE: Super Clod Buster Build-up Thread
Always good to over-build your Clod.. hee hee..
But correct, unless you are mounting your 4-links to the axle-C.. or you still have the brace between the axle-C and the tranny case (the stock setup)...
I don't really know how yours is setup right now..
