More pictures!

Looks a bit like the front wheels point are further apart up front then in the back. I'm not sure what it's called, but it looks like it in the picture next to the F150...

Looks really good. Mind getting some pictures with wheels off? I feel like building one, would make a good trail rig. Can't build it until December-ish (Lego's in storage, moving..) but it looks like fun..

Did you get plans from somewere else, or are you just that good at building?

EDIT: You need ALOT of preload or some stiff springs. Looks good, but it's sagging. And (almost) no one likes it saggy.
EDIT2: Also, If you used two (or even three) shocks at each corner, it would help prevent the sagg.
EDIT3: You should move the drive train forward. Even if it's just a few holes, it will increase stability with pretty much whatever you're trying to do. Maybe not wheeliing, but the drivetrain won't stand up to that, so try moving it forward. Looks cooler too.

With that kinda of talent, you'll make the team. Easily.
