The Dude: Yep, that comes with insane bashing.

Ransom: Thanks man... Yea it is a Hk 100a esc.. I'm going to try it and see if it holds up.. it held up in my Evo8 project on 4s and a Feigao 8XL so maybe it will hold up in this..i'm not sure..if not I'll throw it out and grab me a Hobbywing 150a... I love hobbywing.

Jofreak: Thanks. Definitely no wasted space on this.

I will be useing Imex rear Jato wheels and Proline 2.8 badland tires. The Jato wheels have plenty...almost too much offset to them..and don't come anywhere close of hitting the battery boxs.

Brainator: Yep, I have some tekno ones I'm going to throw around them. I looked into doing that and since the shocks and motor are there..I feel like it would be hard to squeeze the latches. Once I trim down the TVP's the battery box tops will open up more than enough.

I got a small update for you guys today...

When I got the Slayer Pro a-arms I was under the impression that the stock Slayer Driveshafts would be long enough to work with the Pro extended a-arms. I didn't feel like they would be so I bought some Revo Driveshafts. Summit driveshafts would've been better since you don't have to worry about the little e-clips falling out but the Summit drive shafts are crazy expensive. So, I went with Revo drive shafts. Revo drive shafts are obviously way too long...so I got out the scroll saw and trimmed them down.

As many of you know Revo driveshafts are beefy...how beefy you ask? This beefy!
(Left is a Jato/Rustler/Stampede drive shaft, center is a stock slayer drive shaft, and right is the revo drive shafts )

With the drive shafts installed...

While I was at it I put some Jato rod-ends on the Rc8 steering turnbuckles I had used on the Evo8 in order to make them long enough and mounted them

On the rear I installed the drive shafts and installed Jato rod-ends also on the Toe links.

I ordered the last of the parts that I need to complete this project and they should be here Friday or Saturday. I have a busy week and weekend so I'm not sure how much I will be able to get done. But we'll see....
