your not going to have much of a body left if you keep going with the mods! I like it, it keeps with the spirit of many other members franken-rides.

Well i guess i should go with a blackfoot body since i stripped the gears in the frog body (big wheels and 18t motor dont mix) and all i had was a buch devil rear end that ive been holding on too for when i find a blue chassi. Yeah now its a FankenFrog LOL :mrgreen

Yes the wheely bar helps, it flips over on take off without it :mrgreen:

You have the king black foot rear end in there.... Cant emagine that you are having gear problems. Ive ran 12 turn motors in an otherwise stock monster beetle & not had too many problems... Usualy just the hex drives blow out @ high speed.

I had to put the king blackfoot rear in because i shredded the teeth of the spur gear in the frog rear(Note to self: never put 11volt brushless on a frog rear end :mrgreen: had to try it). But now i keep snaping off the king blackfoot axels, i need to find some good harden ones

I vote for a subaru brat body (the lexan one) but you should have heaps of choice.
Just watch no to pick something with too much wheelbase
