    I have a few ideas for better body attachment methods but I'm going to hold off until I have the new wheels/tires/shocks on.... then ill modify the body mount as low as possible to not rub when fully flexed. Thinking of putting the body on a pivot as well for quick battery access.

    I got started on mine. I'm pondering leaving the doors off and painting it red.

    What did you pay for the used Losi crawler? Brand new they are almost $300.

    I don't need a competition crawler but I need to do a little research.

    I paid $300. But it was setup for competition, brushless motor conversion, upgraded driveshaft, 4-link, lipo batteries, high end battery charger, etc etc.

    You should be able to find one for much cheaper that has less add-ons.

    I'm liking that! I've been thinking about building/buying an RC crawler anyway, now I have more incentive!

    Where'd you get that XK body?
