Big Block Baja 2230 Build

I like what you did to that bumper, like you said the stock wheelie wheel is too small, my truck will just right back and stand on the bumper at 90 degrees to the ground.
Are you running a spool or diff setup in the tranny? I have a aluminum spool and I really like it. Sounds like we have the same drivetrain setup. Very nice setup.

I think I will have to steal another idea from you and lock the diff with a spool. After watching vids of numerous Baja's, it's obvious that traction is going to be a problem.
Hate to say it, but experimenting and building is almost as much fun as driving! I can't wait. Thanks doo for all your help.

I agree 100%. I probably spend 5x as much time wrenching on my vehicles than driving them, maybe even more. And I enjoy every bit of it. Building a vehicle up from a pile of parts is my favorite thing to do. These "toy cars" are amazing marvels of engineering IMO, and that's what really keeps me interested in the hobby. I love to tune, adjust, and experiment with all the parts and settings.

Awesome build. Keep up the good work.
