Made some decent progress this week. Got the prototype upper and lower plates cut. Had to make the upper plate twice as I found that some of my hole locations were off a bit, and had to reduce the taper on the front by 1/2 a degree. Still have one set of holes that are off by about 1mm.
First I had to finish up the front end and get some shocks put together for the rear (still waiting on a pair of Ti shafts for the front). I had originally purchased Dynamite Red bodied shocks, then changed my mind and bought a set of Losi threaded hard anodized ones. Only issue at first was that I would have to get the shock ring re-anodized red to match the truck. I was going to use the red caps off the Dynamites, and hopefully end up with a decent looking shock. Well, the cap wouldn't thread on to the Losi's. I then tried the stock blue caps, and they threaded onto both shock bodies fine, and the red caps threaded onto the stock blue bodies.....don't have a clue what could be happening here, but it's fairly obvious I'm not going to be able to use the hard anodized ones.

Also added some Dynamite red chassis braces.
