Rooster Crawler/Tekin 35t motor for now. The Rooster is a "W" series and glitches/jitters badly at low throttle. Unacceptable.
A Holmes 7t Cobalt Puller is on the way (finally!) which I will run with either a Sidewinder or an FX-R (I already have both ESCs "in stock", so experimentation is possible)
Hi-Tec 5645MG & Hand Bros. kit
3Racing winch
2 7.4 volt LiPo's (2200 mah for motor/servo and 600 mah specifically for the winch)
Controlled by a modded TQ3 (for now)
Nekkid shot. Bumpers and rock sliders are hard-mounted.
Details on bumper mounting and some closer pics can be found here if you're interested:

Pro-Line CGR Blazer w/ roof rack, lights, Western bumpers, rock sliders.
WWE wrestler JBL at the wheel (for lack of anyone better - it's hard to find a good driver!)
I am trying a set of RC4WD 90mm scale shocks for the time being. They are the same eye-to-eye length as stock, with slightly less travel. I was trying to "keep it real" suspension-wise and not go for mega-articulation, replicating a highly modified yet still street-legal truck. They work well at slow crawling speeds, but are a bit lacking at higher speeds.
Again, trying to keep it real. No sky-high, monster truck-like ride height here.
I just wasn't digging the light bar on the very top. It stuck up too far and looked like it was ready to get snagged on anything it coud reach.
I made this bracket out of black plastic and flipped the light bar upside-down. Much more streamlined looking...
Axial and Pro-Line have both hit home runs with these products. They have put a great looking scale rig within reach of a lot more people...
RCC member FodigoDave made my fire extingusher. They're not cheap, but the level of detail is absolutely unmatched. Right down to the pin, the inspection tag, even the little twisted wire that holds the tag and pin to the neck of the bottle, it's all there.
I added the 2 bands of aluminum tape, to simulate the bands of a mount.
