What esc do you plan on using? I would recomend not taking the cheap road for the motor and esc! Mamba Monster or Mamba Max/bec and try a Medusa for a quality motor on a budget.

Im thinking about going for the EZRun 150A because its so much cheaper than the MMM. For the motor... Im still leaning towards that $35 9XL motor from hobbycity, a member of e-savage.com uses one and has had nothing but good times with it. I know they run very hot, but I have a heatsink and fan for it so it should be ok. Im on a very tight budget now, and probably wont get the electronics part of this truck for quite a while unless something changes financially.

Got the braces mounted. The lexan and motor mount are marked up and ready to be cut in the morning at the machine shop. Im ordering new center dogbones that actually fit, so I cant mount the center diff on the lexan until I get the bones to place the diff exactly where it needs to go. Not sure if Im going to use the radio box or not..
