Where did you find it? All i have been seeing are the ones w no steering. Approx price?

Got it from a fellow rcc member for $50. Great price after seeing them go for over $100 on fleabay. But if someone has the older ones with no chassis or steering for the right price. I'll take em. I figured out a pretty sweet chassis for them.

Just out of curiosity, what kind of weight are most of your rigs? I'm guessing with a cage and a driver, they're well over 10 lbs? I'm trying to gauge what kind of foams I may need for this pig. :ror:

Whoa! That's more than I expected. No wonder motors are prone to overheating in these things. :ror: I always thought RC4WD foams were pretty useless considering how overly stiff they are, but maybe this is their true calling! I'm glad I kept some of those foams now. "thumbsup"
David This is my thought .....http://www.crawlerinnovations.com/i...roduct_id=127&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=63
Then put these on the ,,outside,, inside ,,of each tire ,,,http://www.crawlerinnovations.com/i...category_id=9&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=63
