I liked my one more...

I would lower it as much as possible, use some uber stiff springs to improve handling and decrease the torque-twist effect, and slap a big old BL system in there to make it fun!

Thanks, to answer your questions. Yes Drift a lot of $$ and time and I loved every minute. Rootar, Wynne is in Arkansas about 30 miles west of Memphis TN. And if I lower the body any more it will be setting on the shocks. Right now it's on the boby post mounts, maybe I can shorten them?? I am not sure if the bumpers can lowered LMN if you have an idea, I think the bumpers are to long, but I don't know what to do?? Suicideneil, A race TXT, Humm... That would be wild, I got a 8xl that's looking for a home . But seriously I am thinking of putting a nice BL crawler setup on it. Thanks

If you're after ideas for lowering the body and suspension etc, take a gander at my build:

Thanks TD, She's not a climber (though she does run) She's a shelf queen. Working on getting some video.
Thanks


Hey Neil, I have been looking at your build. Great stuff!! Thanks
