Post up some pics and info. This forum is for showing your build AS you build it. Not just a thread saying you built one

You must have some mechanical skills or the truck would still be in a bag!!!
Sounds like a nice build.
Like everyone else is mentioning, I'd love to see some pics of your progress.
I like posting as I build I think. It gives me time to break from the build itself. I can step back and really inspect my progress to be sure I'm happy with my efforts and see how I can improve.
Once I post, ppl can chime in with tips or ideas to help or just to say they think it looks good, or bad etc... I think its helpful.
I pick up all sorts of neat tricks from ppl who post their builds too.
Your truck sounds pretty cool!!! Lets see!

sway bars

Let me know how those do. I been needing sway bars on mine and my rusty for years. Would make it so much better on the track. I do have the Hot Racing kit on my wishlist but I heard it can be confusing on where to mount them at. In the front, since I have a RPM bumper.

Just to clarify, it's the Slash that's missing a few screws right?
