Default 1st post here so heres my build

I got a decent Axial Scorpian crawler off craigs list on a trade and got hooked. didnt like the way it climbed so i started messing with everything. 1st I made it a 4 link using threaded rod and brake line tubing, then i added an inch more wheelbase, fabricated my own plates to mount stuff to. added wieghts here and there changed the body and was impressed with it's new crawling abilities, so I got bored again and fabricated my on frame/body combo and new servo holder, and rear battery holder on the axle, also reinvented the steerin to double my turn capibilities. sooooo much fun. thought i'd share the pics with you guys.
