Well, I finally got around taking some pics of it. I still have some cleanup to do on the side plates, but Here's what I built:

- stock axles.
- SMC straight axle kit.
- stock transmission.
- bent rear lower links.
- custom bent long upper links.
- Homebuilt 4-link servo plates.
- Homebuilt verticle steering servo mount.
- Integy MSR-10 shocks run upside down w/ soft springs, full droop.
- ProLine M2 FlatIrons w/ Proline memory foams on ProLine wheels.

Electronics:
- (oldschool) JR Propo R1 TX w/ Spectrum.
- Spectrum SR3000 RX.
- Castle Sidewinder ESC.
- Castle BEC.

Yeah, I ended up with alot more flex than I wanted. With the stock chassis, I had binding problems, and I was constantly snapping the right rear lower link end at the axle. Since the rebuild, I have yet to break one, so until then or until I get in trouble due to binding at flex, I'm just going to leave it...though I may lose some articulation when I swap out my links. I have 12' of 5/16" Delrin rod, 3' of all thread, and a couple packs of Revo link ends to replace all of the aluminum links.

Here's the bottom. I'm using the Stage 3 Delrin skid.

Oh, and I have just a hair over 2 3/4" of ground clearance at the center, and I'm just as stable as my buddy's who are still on stock chassis.

Where did you get the bottom plate from? I looked in your list 3x but I didn't see it listed.

The skid? Stage 3...

I got the skid from Stage 3 (http://stage3.charlienaebeck.com/). I really wish I would have gotten the narrow one, but I wasn't planning to completely redesign the chassis when I first ordered it.

Looks good man I like the custom bend on the upper links. nice job.

saweeet, looks real good.The shocks, how are they?

They're ok. They work well enough in a droop setup. I wouldn't care much for them in a traditional setup, though. They're a little big, and still leaked a little when right side up.
