Just thought I'd post up some pics of my rc crawler. The tube work is MIG welded 3/16" brakeline. The axles are Tamiya TLT.

Killer. I like the fact that you went without using coil-overs. Seems much more scale that way for some reason.

Thanks for the kind words guys. This rig was built to be a scale version of what I would do to my Bronco if I built it for Top Truck Challenge.

ZooMad, thanks, I have always felt that building my r/c rigs with coil spring suspension adds a little bit more realism than just using the standard coilover shocks. Plus, I really like coil spring suspension.

For those that can't see the pics, here are some links.

I don't have any good body off pics right now but since I am rebuilding it I should get some soon here. Here is a link to my gallery where the pics are, there are some buildup pictures in there.
