Thank You! I appreciate it! I will get some pics of my dads buggy tomorrow or saturday. The Gt Bodies are worth the time & $; thats for sure... But they are kinda thin so you gotta get a tube of shoe goo to reinforce the weak spots from the get go.
As promised in another post, here is my Maxx Skid Plate. VERY Simple: 7075 1/8" inspired by a CF/FLM Build I saw here about 2 years ago. Although the bottom is just a skid and I strap the batts to the bottom of the chassis.
Just using the holes tapped from the FLM Chassis, Used 40mm - 3mm and 4mm screws and lock nuts to keep it from bending. wrap it in foam, and done.
Only thing I need is to get that motor lower. Possible CD when $ presents itself. Also, These are my favorite tires, Zombie Maxx. I Stretched them onto so Rulux HalfUps with some Ofna Soft MT Foams. They are about 2 years old and at least 50% tread left and they are SOFT compound.
