loaded tlt axles,
What do you mean by loaded tlt axles- what goodies did you add?

I originally built these axles for my 2.2 comp rig, so I tried to bullet proof them as much
as possible. anyways, here's the list of goodies.
rcp rg & p sets front & rear, rcp cvd's front and rear, msd ultimate axle c's front &
ultimate lockouts rear, also added dinky rc "dinky links" for the upper link mounts.

I kinda took a gamble on the chassis and it ended up being spot on
for the bronco body.
update, time.
got my motor/esc combo in. decided to go w/ a holmes hobbies revolver/traxxas vxl-3m.
also installed some shorter 80mm rc4wd shocks.

Looking good. Those revolver motors are supposed to be pretty powerful. Looks like a lot of batteries strapped in there too. I like what I see so far. Nice work there sods. :thumb:
