Got a lot done this weekend though not much to show for it visually. Fitted an FLM steering brace. Simple but effective, freed up the steering movement. Cut a heap of bolts that needed doing and drilled all the remaining holes in the TVPs for the radio box(Traxxas), shock tower supports, rear mud guard mounts and skid plate. Rear mudguard mounts i made out of old Flux battery box mounts. Skidplate i decided not to go with the RPM one. Made one out of 3mm MDF i had left over from prototyping. It will be mounted to an old set of plastic Flux cross braces that have had the locator pins cut off. Shock tower supports are made out of the stock Flux steering tie rod ends. You can sorta see one on the rear in the pic

Did some cutouts. I had more cutouts sketched out for the middle of the left TVP shown below but i'm going to wait and see how much mud\dirt gets thrown up in the area where the slipper is.

I probably have only a days work or so to go now before a final assembly

Which body is that?
