Whao, cool! Neat project
Is the exhaust going to melt the rear left tire, or just oil it up real good?

Looks cool already. Need to change that carb and center that tank to keep that body low. I think that's what keeps a nitro buggy looking good. It looks like the exhaust should clear the tires fine. The shock on the other hand......
Keep up the good work

The stock bones will work. It's the same AE diff just a different gear and trans housing.
