What kind of joints are you using up front to allow the front wheels to turn, as I noticed it is 4wd. Also what kind of gears are you using for the axles and the transmission? What about the steering blocks up front. I might have to make my own
:ö:

thanks r.c.dealer, the u-joints used on the front wheels to turn are handmade by me, out of a 4mm steel shaft (check out some of the pics of the u-joints i made at my gallery on TTTT thread i also have made some u-joint out of 3mm steel shaft to make my 6x6 1/87 truck all-wheel-drive! i got some video there too to prove it's all-wheel-driven capabilities and the strength of those steel u-joints) the gears set used for the tranny came from Tamiya Racing Mini-4WD with 5:1 gear ratio, and the gears at the axles are combination of a worm and gearset, so i expect this truck much faster than the other trucks i made, now that steering block, i curve that thing out of a thick brass tube.

yes, this truck is going to be like it's bigger version, i've already made a waterproof electronic box, so submerging the truck on a headlight high water will be possible
