Looking good Ian :chug:

I like to use Axial drive shafts and you can make the mounts out of just about anything and hold the body down with velcro.

Keep up the :nice: work.

That makes it even better :laugh: I had pm'd him already about a chassis.

Just noticed your only up the road from me (Barkingside here), small world huh.
Looking forward very much to watching this build as i think it will be a very similar route to my build except i will gear mine slightly more around my 1:1 yj.

great to see you building this ian.

i would get the chassis done and what ever else you are going to do with the body figured out and then let that determine how you mount the body, that may be an easier route.

Man, I'm looking forward to this.

That "poison guy...what's his name" builds a mean chassis, doesn't he? :laugh: I love the leaves.

What length shocks are you running on that?
