Overhaulin the wraith, DC Rubicon, mmp waterproof

Well I got some new updates! I recently did some trading with "TNCrawler" and acquired a sweet honcho , thanks Matt . I can feel its lockers are toast so I bought some Vanqish lockers for my wraith and gonna put mr hr lockers in my honcho!
Here are some picks of the new Vanqish locker going in.

Here is a shot of the Vanqish locker installed with axial cvd's. Look in the holes the axles are not long enough for the set screws to grab. Ohh well I guess that means eventually getting Vanqish cvd's. Hmm

Got some pics from this weekend! The pro4 and ax2 are still doing great. After quite a few upgrades this thing is a beast and reliable. Haven't had to do much lately. About the only thing I haven't done is put hardened diff gears in yet and although the rear hasn't failed the front, in a bind, will click and jump a few teeth. Here is some water pics. Got some rain for a couple days before hand so the creek was a flowing. Made for some fun wheelin. I jumped one time and landed in a 6inch deep puddle on my roof. The receiver cover was loose but it lived... Whew:roll:

Ok, whew, originally thought I would do this in a couple days. I was wrong! Here are some pics of phase 1 complete. Still more work to do but I got to drive it some before I get the shakes! :)

Here are some pics with the rock lights on, the pics don't do them justice.

Real nice looking rig
 
Looking good man. I got mine ready to go.We need to hook up soon, I got a itchy throttle finger lol.
 
Good looking wheels
thanks Maddog! I love em. A couple minutes with the dremel polishing bit and they look better than new!

I am usually not a fan of the Jeep bodies, but yours looks awesome. Great build.
I really appreciate the nice words Jay. The jeep body got hung on a couple things here and there and didn't last too long so I'm back to the axial body and am digging it!

Looking good man. I got mine ready to go.We need to hook up soon, I got a itchy throttle finger lol.
Thanks wild man. We usually get together on Sunday mornings around eight at Aetna mtn. Close to the bottom. I also have 5 acres on Wilcox mtn with some sweet hills and a little creek running through it. I am wanting to make a few scaler trails, bridges and such. Either way send me a Pm with your cell# and I'll shoot you a text Sunday if we are going. Love to have you join us!

Got a new bumper in from RPP today to replace my broken stocker and I am really impressed with it. I thought I shoot a couple pics so you guys could check it.

I took some more pics of the new BGR bumper also I recently have installed some Traxxas big bores which I am really happy with along with some mini t springs and jeepin Doug's spring cups. The cups are really nice. The bumper gives you a really sturdy piece to help carry the wraith with. Also I moved my receiver to the rear along with my BEC. They are now in the TSC toolbox in the back out of the water but sealed in a ziplock bag just in case I flip it in a puddle.
