Picked the Pro up off craigslist a couple weeks ago. Buggy was hardly ran. I forgot to take pics before starting disassembly, but here's how it sat at first.

Took it all apart and started with the tranny. Upgraded to a slipper and hydra assembly. Also got a LX-t motor plate to replace the scratched up one. Funny thing is the chassis has hardly any wear, but the motor plate that was on it is thrashed!

Here's the tranny all mounted up with the rear suspension. I have the super sliders, but I'm going with losi universals. Just waiting on new yokes for them. Losi threaded shocks all around. Got em for a good price, so I picked them over big bores.

Front suspension pieces: RPM JRXT arms, and losi threaded shocks. I'm gonna run the b4 rulux wheels, so I ordered the xxt wide axles. The b4 wheels work just fine with a rear axle spacer, but I wanna try it both ways.

Here's where I'm at with it now. Still waiting on parts. Gotta bunch of stuff from sabulatech and rpm coming... Think Bumblebee!
Wheels and tires are gonna be matching Rulux B4 style with prolines. Havent decided on electronics yet, but I'm thinking mild brushless setup, prob a 13.5. Still on the fence about running the hydra, as I have read posts saying a 22 slipper setup can be fit with just a little modification. As for the body, I have an uncut original I may use. I think I can probably fit a b4 body. I saw one on a jrx2 recently and it didn't look half bad. Could be an option keeping with the WOIN theme.

Could do with some better pics, but nice addition of the hydra and threaded shocks!
