I got this AX10 today, I'm pretty stoked but I've got a few ?'s How do I find a body that will fit it, or do I have to stay with just body panels, and when I turn either direction the wheel rubs on the bar that goes from the chassis to the bottom of shock really bad and pretty much stops it in its tracks, how can I fix this? Also I don't know a thing about crawling yet so any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

the "bar" you mention is the lower link, get some longer bolts for where the link and the shock mount on the axle, and move you links to the inside, also, for a normal crawler body you will need a different chassis, thats a tuber so its not supposed to have a body. you can buy some nice after market chassis for pretty cheap or put up a wtb add for a stock ax10 chassis.
 
Is a tuber chassis any better than a standard chassis or is it purely for looks?
 
nice crawler

there are tons of different chassics for crawler so just do some reseach over on RCC and find which one u like best

mainly for looks but if you decide to compete you will realize a tuber sucks for the most part beings they are top heavy compared to a nice comp chassis...imo even a stock axial chassis is gonna be WAY better than that tuber...you can prolly get a stock axial chassis for like $20 shipped too....

Nice rig and like SNG said move your lower links to the inside of your chassis as well as to the inside of the shocks where the lower links and shocks mount on the axle, it will crawl much better like that....
