Guess, I forgot to add some details. AX10 Trans and axles. The normal 55turn, actually maybe put in brushless so I can pound the snot out of it.

I got it sitting on its own weight, took some poser shots. I'm really happy for the most part. Gonna change some stuff around in the front.

What did you use and how did you attached the link mounts and coilover mounts to the frame? I just picked up an AX10 for a good price and looking to cheaply build it up.

Hey, if it's possible. Could you post up some close ups of the upper and lower links where they mount at chassis side.
I'm curious to see what that looks like.
I wish I had the skills to make my own chassis.
