ok since the last time i ever took pics I've upgraded alot of my stuff.
i am now running a holmes hobby handwound 540 motor with 12t pinion. also a new slipper clutch.
i also upgraded to a sidewinder esc along with a CC bec set at 6 volts.
I got the CC bec cuz i was having problems with glitching when i would turn and this took care of it, i bought it at www.tcscrawlers.com
I also recently bought a EEM motor plate and an EEM tranny plate wich are killer quality and performance. i of course bought those two items and eastendmachining.com along with new aluminum front knuckles in red wich are bad ass as well. check out the tranny plate and motor plate here....perfect.

here you can see the skid, i have used the sh!t outta it already but it holds up like no other.

you can see my EEM motor plate here, its the big thick shiny plate by the tranny and motor lol. u can see my new MIP drivelines as well, and yes i know its dirty.

I also just got my new MIP drivelines and am really loving them too, sturdy mother hummers and very easy to put together.
i have been running semi droop for a long time now with medium droop springs and instead of running another set of springs on top of the piston to get the "semi" part of the phrase i was running outter springs wich I've tried both ways and i just liked it better that way for looks, cuz shocks are ugly without spring imo. but i took out the droop springs and am just running shorter springs now, stiff up front and medium in the rear and I'm really liking how it handles, the new EEM tranny plate also made it handle way better, not exactly sure why but it did.

i also am running a straight axle in back now and prolly gonna be getting some upgrade for it as well because I'm liking the aluminum upgrade parts that I've seen on EEM for them, i'll prolly try to get red to match my front knuckles.
i still have my silver bent aluminum lower links but I'm thinking of changing those out as well sooner or later but they work for now.
and of course i have Losi Claws on my proline 8-shooters. and i have new bead locks for my 8 shooters but just havent went to pick them up yet.
you can see what they look like here. http://banana-head.com/17315.html
I'm hoping i can get a dig setup too pretty soon but I'm not sure yet.

i took more pics but they are really blurry for some reason so i'll take some more and put em up later.;)
 
Man I haven't seen rock rash like that since the red head from the grovery store gave me rock rash. Nice job!
 
thanks guys. and yeah charlie it scared pretty good but remember all of my rock is lava with sharp edges.
 
the slipper works great now, it gives out at what seems like the right moment.
 
heres a pic of my new dig put together.

It looks great. I miss it already though :\ Oh well, it was for my girl and shes getting to be a hell of a driver, this will keep her at a disadvantage, I can't have my girl outcrawling me. :hehe:
 
ok so i got a c-10 body and have a couple pics of the paint job, sorry for the pics quality i can't ever take good pics for some reason plus I'm sure all of you with killer paint jobs know that pics dont do it justice at all.
