Rear driveshafts sorted, b4 axle, mip t4 shaft, axle shims and a Tamiya 12mm hex and we are business!
If in doubt go flat out!

Scored this front brace off eBay for £4 and the front end is nearly complete!

Sorry for the upside down pics! Bloody I phone! If you click on them they are the right way round!
Quick question, any benefit of using buggy steering set up/Bell cranks over the truck ones??

Looking good, can't wait to see the finished results.
Ditch the 10T bellcranks, they are horrible on anything other than a shelfer. Use the worlds steering as it's much better, especially with bearings. Also, pick up some button head 8/32 screws to use for the steering and that will be one serious truck!!

As per the advice I’ve fitted the worlds steering set up now
Took the grinder to some CS washers so the Ali AE screws don’t take too much of a hammering
