absolutely beautiful nick! the truck is amzing in how scale it is, wish the big name companies would start doing more like these so us non mechanically inclined could have one!--josh

Beautiful truck. Really wonderful. I am looking forward to seeing more of your build.

May I ask a question though? Why is that TTB suspension used.. ever? It seems that although it gives great travel it would be horrible for handling. The toe, camber and track width must all change a fair amount throughout the range of motion. What's wrong with double wishbone? Please note this is not a question about YOUR build, I understand you are using this for imitation and scale reasons. It's more a question about why would a 1:1 prerunner have it. Thanks.

No offense taken!

The toe actually stays consistent as long as the steering is setup correctly.

The camber does change quite a bit but the only time its at an angle that wouldn't be good would be while the truck is in air. I think this suspension is used most because it is fairly simple, strong and you can get a LOT of suspension travel.

BTW... Any updates?

Yes, +1

wow sick build this is sooo nice

From seeing the for sale section on RCCrawler.com I would think the only update is that it is for sale.

Sorry guys it did get parted out unfortunately. With a 1 year old running around and other RCs in the shop this one just wasn't going anywhere. It demanded way to much thought and way too much fabrication time. Sadly the body went one way and suspension another so who knows what's being done with it.

Some day I'll start another and I'll have a better plan for it.
