First crawler build in 6 years

[team green]

Shocks came in. I went with Traxxas 2660 big bores with Losi mini T springs.
Still waiting on the Beef Tubes aluminum spring cups.

I’m a touring car racer. But I’ve had crawlers in the past. Last one being a Losi comp crawler. A few of my friends have recently gotten back into crawling. So of coarse I had to get one.
I chose to get the Raw builders kit. I planned to keep it mostly stock. That didn’t last long. Only thing left from the kit is the frame rails and tranny case.
List of parts:
Vanquish shock hoops
Vanquish rockjock axles front is over drivin with HR 27T 8T gears
TRX-4 aluminum GTS shocks
Incision machined gears
Incision center drive shaft
Incision Method MR307 aluminum headlocks
Pit bull Rockbeast XL tires
Samix titanium high clearance links
SSD brass knuckles
Hobbywing AXE FOC ESC with 2300kv brushless motor
Savox SA-1283sg Servo
Went with a Axial Trail Hancho body

I like! Where did you get that servo relocation mount and battery tray? i wanna do that to my rig too. Do you have pics of how your servor arm and steering links are positioned?

The spring cups came in for the lite weight build. So I was able to install the big bores.
Just waiting for my links to get made.

So far this is were I’m at weight wise. Any lighter it doesn’t crawl well at least for me.

Still waiting on my links. But I did do the stock cap mod on the big bores today.

Took the lite weight build to J&J customs in San Jose Ca for a shake down run. Not bad can’t wait to take it out to the coast.
