See what happens when I get bored..?
Decided I would be like Rustler001 and put an old Xmod body to use. Plus I was really bored and it was 102F today so didn't really want to go outside. I do realize my toe is out of whack, thank you hand made steering links. I need to make new ones that have proper toe. The axles are a bit too wide for the body but it's no big deal. The wing on the back is going to go and the sharpie paint job that I did 3 years ago will be going too. Once I get another Brushless motor, it'll be a runner. I made it just a tad bit too short, the chassis but I'm leaving it alone. Might remove the aluminum and make it a bit longer(the chassis) so it lines up but still need to mount the body and re-do my steering links. This will be the tow rig for my micro Silverado 8)
