Personally I like the hummer better... and lower the bodies just right. Holy huge RC's batman- they look great! I wonder what is the perspective beside a clod.

 Got the chassis (OG chassis w/ L bar for extra support (Cross members to come soon))  Body 9" lift, chassis lower bracket 6" clearance. I will be lowering the body 1" and lifting the chassis 1". With a ground clearance of 7". My center to center WB will be 17"  I am thinking wheel extenders. * As for wheels I am thinking of Mud slingers or Kongs.....OR Suggestions??? * Shocks.....I am not sure to mount the on the links or stock postions.......Suggestions??? * I would perfer to keep it 4WD. Any suggestion on cleaning the servo up (Locations) * Battery's.......I am thing of locating one on the rear and one up front. I am building this to be a trail runner / Crawler / MUD KILLER.

If your going with KONGS I would use a 1/4 scale servo. I have to upgrade to two 1/4 servos for my rig.
