Thats what I think a dbxl should look like.
Took me 2 mths and more than a few hrs of wrenching. Lot's of help from this community. Thank you to everyone.
G320 jetpro silenced pipe hitec servos
Keep having to tell myself that the OBR engine that I want will just tear up this poor drivetrain. No chance I'm dumping another 2k into this platform. Had it out today for a few tanks and it handles as expected lol...bit better with the spare on. 2 nosedive cartwheels so far today and no broken parts. Popped a link on the front sway bar and slightly bent a rod end.

Broken front sway bar is normal. The kinks arnt long enough. The nose dive is the crap shocks. But yeah they arnt bad once they get 90% of the issues sorted out.
 
Yes sir I was thrashing on it. Those gtb turnbuckles are junk bent one of them already waste of 40 bucks lol...all in all Im pretty happy with it. The only money I'm putting into now is in the diffs. Centre diff needs it now front and rear won't be far behind.
Found great spot today 5 mins from home 3 mins from work.
