Spoke with Vanquish about the bent steering rod link from the VPS06973/VPS06972 kit. It is not available outside that kit,
This is one part that they need to offer for those of us who bought the individual CMS and Panhard mounts.

Since I wasn't going to buy a 12.3 inch CMS Panhard link kit for my 12.0 rig, I went ahead and grabed a set of pliers and
bent my threaded rod link around the pumpkin, and backed out the rod ends a few turns. It looks hack as heck but works.

Did the Gear head lift brackets and 100mm King shocks and got an easy 5.5" of flex. Also added a wheel in the back which was loaded with screws for some extra weight in the rear to help prevent rollovers on the steep downhill ledges.

I made some chromoly lower links to push the WB out to 12.3" to run a Jeep Unlimited Rubicon body. Then since I can't find the offset rear body posts, I drilled some holes in the frame to move the shock hoops back to mount the body. Then I mounted up my Rock Beasts & CI closed cell foams on SSD-RC bead locks. I dig the JK body a little more than the G6 body that came with the kit. Now I need to finish building my sliders and make a rear bumper.
 
Ordered more stuff before the first round or stuff I need to start building even arrives...

Today's order:

HeyOK 4A Relay Winch Controller
KMS Winches K3 Servo Winch
SSD Scale Hawse Fairlead
VP Poison Spyder JK LED light bar mount
VP Rigid 6" LED light bar
VP Rigid 1" LED light bar Black
 
A decent amount:

1. Tow strap
2. SSD alloy wheels
3. Crawler Innovations 2 stage medium tire foams
4. Gear Head lift kit
5. Pro-Line hex wheel hubs (wider than stock)

The next step is King 100mm shocks.

For the Wroncho: Soldered up a harness for twin 2200 mAh LiPo batteries and put on an AE-5 ESC. Next up is make two brackets to be able to mount a battery on each side of the tranny skid. I put on an Axial 20t last week for cheap, too.

Helped my wife 4-link the front of her rubi. Had to modify the servo plate, and shim it up a bit because the truss gear head makes sits way too high. Not sure what they were thinking there. Also had to use shorter ball ends on one end of the Rock Krawler links, but turned out great! Have the other two links to replace her plastic uppers in the rear, then she'll be full metal front and rear.

Finished the revamp of the PowerWagon's roof rack and roll bar.
Also fabricated up a light bar for the Wife's honcho.

Roof Rack


Rollbar Also came up with a way to carry sand rails.


Here it is with lights installed I left 1 l.e.d. on each side to act as side lights like I had on my 1.1


Should be bright enough


Here are the ones on the honcho


 
For my Power Wagon I made some stainless lower links with all thread, stainless tubing, and Revo rod ends. I screwed up and didn't buy enough tubing so I cant do the uppers right now. I am currently waiting on SSD titanium steering links from RPP and a Traxxas parallel adapter so I can put my 2 3S 2200 packs on the sliders and move my electronics up front.

Next mod will be a steering servo and an aluminum servo horn. Not sure if I am going to do a CMS with panhard or leave the servo on the axle.
 
This is a lot of work. I bought the tool but it won't chuck into my electric driver.

About 8 feet of 200 pound lockedup red synthetic line. Closest I could get to pink. It looks red/orange.
