Thanks to Jeff for the fine chassis and rear shock mount

Are there any bodies especially for the Andy´s trailing arms?

This is how it ended so far. replaced the "original" trailing arm rear suspension mount with a standard, and used some shorter shocks to keep the body low.

Please try to keep Your enthusiasm down this time - I know it´s hard, but please try and keep the comments to a minimum :mrgreen:

You need a big white wing on the rear, and paint those nose tubes white :idea:

and a lethal weapon and traxxas dogbone setups and and and :mrgreen:

As far as the buggy goes in the final product why did you change out the wheels Dennis? What did you do to mount the nose tubes to the chassis? I think it looks good as is but looked great pre-body shots with just the right amount of shelfer bling :mrgreen:

Well, since I had to replace the gold shocks because of the lenght of the rears, I took revenge and replaced the aluminum rims :mrgreen:
The nose braces are bent 6mm aluminum rods.
