So for Christmas my fiancé bought me a kraton 8s which I loved but wanted a short wheel base truck like the outcast so it’s undergoing some changes! Here’s how it started out!

So before I decided to change anything I bought a max5 esc and proline brute body and drove it a few times that way and decided to start getting all the parts together from eBay and Jenny’s RC.

So I ordered the chassis braces, chassis, side guards, front shock shafts, rear drive shafts, body, wheels and tires from some places and started taking the truck apart. And put it all together and here it is now

So as of today I’ve got a hobbywing 1100kv motor coming, PPS motor mount, 30 tooth pinion. And I just finished changing the center diff fluid to 20 mil weight and putting in the primal raminator servo. Hopefully I’ll have the new motor in this weekend then I’ll be able to give it a proper beat down!
