I re-made the rear roll cage out of solid 3/8" aluminum rod, much stronger than the stock plastic, I think it'll look good with the Chrome HBZ roll bar.

Are those boots over the dog bones from the Baja?

Very good pete, that is the first time in a long time that I was able to put a tank of fuel through anything without it breaking. lol YOu are going to be very happy. We have about 6" of powder here I would jump over the snow drift onto my yard and chug across the powder-hellofa lot of fun.

Yep Kaz, those are HPI dog bone boots. O just heatshrinked the drive cup and put the HPI boots over with a smal plastic tie wrap. I bought a set of DS boots to try too, I tore the first 2 trying to install them, I'll stick with the HPI ones, they are indestructible-to a higher degree.

Glad to hear nothing broke,always a good thing. I really can't wait to get one and see what everybodies talking about.

What size heat shrink did you have to use?

How did you get the small end over the end of the bone?

Well, I mounted the HBZ roll cage and centre gear diff mount.

I also mounted up a set of CAT 5 locking wheel nuts


I also sealed the radio box with foam tape, and the cover doesn't have the strength, so I reinforced it. It works good and looks not bad. It'll definetly keep the water out.
