If your crawling it, I'd drop the chassis a little more. I would also put the battery on the front axle. It still throws the cg off, but it will help in ascending/descending. Just my 2 cents, nice ride though.

Well aware of the CG issue hcfr....and the battery will work best on the rear axle unless I just split it up and turn it into a saddle pack for mounting purposes...but this truck will probably never see the out doors...it's just for crawling over pillows in the house, lol Here's a pic of it the way it's supposed to be...just for you hcfr, j/k lol  |

It's supposed to be however you like it. Anytime someone builds it themselves, it's a 100 times better than any factory ride, in my opinion, which is not worth much. You have a great MT. I wouldn't think of telling you or anyone else what or how they should do something. I am definately not an authority in this area, reason being I haven't completed my first custom build yet. I have seen and read alot about what does and doesn't work. I sincerely hope I didn't offend you, if I did I am sincerely apologetic. I am sure most people in here could show me a thing or 2 or 3 about this sport, there is no dening that. All I try to do here is pass on info. I've come across that might help anyone that reads these threads.  |

Easy there hcfr, lol. I'm not offended at all, hence the "j/k, lol" in the sentence before the new "lowered pic."
Actually to be honest I meant to put the new pic up before anyone commented on the ride height but you beat me to it, lol.
Anyway I guess I should appologize to you if what I wrote sounded hostile. I was just goofing so no harm meant.
Get that USA-1 done!!!!! lol

Yep, pillows and the occasional cat maybe (if the tlt can catch it) I'd rather take on the rocks with my clod:  |
