Travis tells us his priorities were “low and stable” for his custom project, so he began with a set of Brazin Scale RC high/low chassis rails. He then hung a Brazin custom-fabricated tube truggy back half in place of the rear frame rail sections. Then he added JT Hobbies high clearance suspension and steering links. Axles are a Narrow XR modified front and rear with splined beef tubes. He installed a Toyzuki Fabrication forward motor mount and flush skid. Power comes from a Holmes Hobbies BLE Pro running a Stubby Puller Pro brushless motor. Tires are Pro-Line flat iron XL 2.2s with Crawler Innovations Double Deuce foams. Steering comes courtesy of dual Savox 1230 servos running off a Castle Creations BEC Pro. Topping the truck off is a body crafted from two hard bodies to make an extended cab S10.
