I'm still seeing the stock Chevy frame running under the cab and up under the bed...no fresh welds from cross braces being added so just curious how he's planning to keep that thing in one "somewhat" straight piece.

To each their own, but most people who get to know me and my 1:1 interests know that I hate mud. With that being said I don't mean to come off like I'm bashing the truck...just wondering if some of the weaknesses have been addressed or if it will twist up like a pretzel the first time he mashes on the skinny pedal.

x2 hate mud!!! But itty is right, brace it and brace it again."thumbsup"
 
Thanks again Travis! You're going to love that motor/ESC combo...I haven't really ran mine in the Wraith yet, but I know what it was capable of in my EXO buggy :shock:

Is there anything else left on your rig that we can swap to a VP part :lmao:

Do they make skid plates yet? That is the only plastic left on the truck.8)

I'm wondering why the rig is toed out. It's got VP knuckles...VP tie rod, but it's toed out. No obvious bend in the tie rod...it was used before I got it. I'm wondering if it might be the racing ackermann version...not sure of the difference though.
 
Soooo jealous Travis. I'll have that set up after i finish a few other "projects". :mrgreen:

Looks good Ryan. Not sure why the front tires are toed out. Mine are toed in with the drag link I bought from you. You couls always sand a little off the link and rod ends to get it dialed in.

Picked up a brand new "project" today. ;-) First upgrade bought and paid for. Grabbed a scope and the correct mounting rings while I was shelling out cash.

Wraith is looking good Ryan!!! I still want one but momma says I'm old enough my wants won't hurt me!!! :lmao:
 
The rockwells have nothing to do with the frame Wendall I was posting up particulars of the whole build the front half of the frame is boxed in from the back of the front leafs all the way to the front and the rear is braced from in front of the rear leafs all the way back, its what he wanted so that's what he got. Lol
