This set me back a bit on the engine build, but I couldn't resist and this thing is so much damn fun!

So, how does it crawl? Stock vs modified? They do look like fun

Crawls decent out of the box. But really I just can't leave "decent" alone.
I put Micro-T Soft White springs on the back and used fuel tubing as a collor, it can slide up and down the shock body to adjust pre-load. I also made some lower links, that I plan to bend.
The lower links are made from Associated RC18 Link Ends, 2-56 All-Thread, and 1/8" aluminium tubing. I plan on bending them, and also I plan on putting on the Micro-T Shock shafts and bodies.

Lowered it down a little, bent the links, and put the Orange Medium Micro-T springs in the front.
I hope proline puts out a Micro Bug body, or a Micro C10.
Edit, just got to really "test" the bent links, they make a huge difference!
