Great looking rear end

Post by huminski »

lol.

Picked up a fox in decent shape a couple months ago or so.

since then been picking up little lots of parts, the occasional ebay fox, etc.

Doing inventory I realized I had the makings for a kick ass rear end.

New gearbox plastic. Thorp Diff, dogbones and axles, I polished the outrives and axles after I took the pics. I recently found the Thorp spur to match, just have to get motivated enough to tear it back down to install. CRP (I think) rear sway bar, used purple fuel tubing to dress it up a bit. SEES (I think) aluminum wheels which I treated to a mirror polishing. Unknown tires. Trinity Cobalt 27T Factory Tweaked motor (because it was blue lol). Cleaned and rebuilt shocks. And a fully intact rear crash bar and mounting tab, both new from package.

I think it came out quite nice if I do say so myself.

Very nice indeed!. Btw, you have a Parma adjustable rear sway bar there (not CRP). Like those wheels too!

Because of the title of this thread I was thinking of something totally inappropriate. :roll: :oops:
