What's On Your Bench?

Swapped the AR60 axles out for some TRX4 units and went to 1.9s. It crawled absolutely horrible before. It wasn't anywhere near drivable, I think due to the width of the axles and tire size.

I think it looks a lot better this way too. More of a scale trail truck look. It seems to work better than before just putzing around the house, but we'll see when I give it an actual run. Not looking for miracles as it's heavy, but it was atrocious before.
 
Posted this truck in the beginning of the thread. It has since changed a bit. It is an approx. 1/6 scale (based on dimensions) 4x4, 27.5cc 2 stroke mega truck. Tcase is an HPI Baja transmission mounted sideways that bolts into a steel subframe. Frame is welded aluminum with an integrated front clip and steel roll cage. Not sure on axles yet. Thinking custom angle grinder gear straight axles with a 1 link. Or possibly aluminum housing SCX6 axles but don't know if they will be strong enough. I have an OBR 30.5cc pro stock motor that makes 5.5hp that I may put in it as well.
