nitro crawler/every day runner....

[dr15144]

ok lets start this off by saying not wanting to build a crawler but wanting to build an everyday runner with the 4 link set up and axles of a crawler(for the realistic look) but also wanting the speed and handling of an every day driver ... so the question is, is there a tranny that is higher geared and higher gears for the axles to make an everyday runner...i have a 1967 chevy truck body and want to make it look as close to real as possiable...

What about a Wheelie King. It's cheap enough. With a four link set up, I would think it would be close to impossible to beef it enough to handle big jumps and some bad landings. Just seems like a lot of leverage on the links. I have no experience with this type of set up, so what do you guys think? I LOVE the way they look.

I have heard of a wheelie king nitro conversion, but i just dont see the 4 link setup working well with nitro........
