Hello all . So this is my new build. maybe someone already who knows me on Facebook has noticed that I'm building a big bore baja. I wanted to put it here gradually as I building it . but since I'm already 90 percent finished (missing the sx5 panels only. I'm still undecided whether I'm going to sprayed them or have the wrap made. I wanted to keep my colors from my 5b . they should be taylor rc colors. black, white and red. I haven't decided yet ) I used a kraken rc extended arms only for rear axle . I kept the front arms HPI because of the possible breakage )).to be a cheap replacement )) so I used only wheel extenders taylor for stock hpi front arms and kraken rc extended rear arms .there were problems with mounting the engine. the screw hole for the clutch housing and the back plate modifield rc did not fit . I had to grind the trans case a bit . I am not very satisfied with it, because the trans case touches the engine anyway . I would rather there was a gap ..

I still need to improve a lot of things. but now, when I put the baja on the ground for the first time, I found out that I need stiffer red springs for the irc shocks . the silver ones are too soft for this weight ))

Very nice. That thing should rip! I am in the process of putting the SX5 body kit on my 5b. That IRC chassis in a nice upgrade. (I snapped my stock one in half)
