I've bought this body as we'll. I'm a huge fj fan. I'm waiting to score a used scx10 as a donor chassis to build the fj on. Can't wait to see the progress. What are you going to do for bumpers? And is there anyway you could post your link measurements when the time comes?
 
Ok next was axles..
Rear was packed with beef tubes and hd under drive gears and hot racing locker..

links fitted ..3 link brackets from a vp scx10 panhard link kit i had but hated it so went 4link on that rig..i used 3/16 rod treaded to 4 mm revo rod ends..rear link risers
 
nice done, I like the xr mod ! how you like it ?

It runs good climbs up good side hills good and drops down good ..I'm really happy with the performance of the rig ..but it ain't done yet winch and lights next ..
so far I love the xr mod it turns on a dime ..plus the ud/od gears ..needless to say I'm pulling lines that my buddys cant..
