Hey trucker, it's not pictures but it covers all my animals (I was happy with one each but I caved into wife) and the Aeromax finished. I'll get to that thread, thanks!! It's what I want, as I'm planing on running the dump in dirt 99% of the time.

And I figured on beefing up the suspension. If I go with the front wheel drive I can now make new springs heavy duty. I got a sheet of spring steel, easy to work annelid, just have to heat treat when done.

Bottom spring is stock tamiya, top two are test builds. I made a quick jig to accurately bend. And surprising that steel in its state is really easy to shear and bend. Same thickness as stock (22 gauge I think). Once I get the right length and eyes bent the other leaves will be easy.
