Ran some prototypes for the front suspension, almost happy with it, still needs tweaking, im trying to get it as close to the real deal while getting functionality out of it

got the double wheel adapter all figured out





then i decided to take apart my trans because rc4wd is notorious for sending them with minimal lubrication inside, plus i needed to paint it to match the motor anyway


and i finally got around to adding detail to the motor with some 1/16 aluminum rod and some electrical wiring and paint
