I have a wheel loader with forks at home. I live on a private road and need it for snow. Bonus for me checking flex.

Check this guy out... amateur hour...

haha. Jk. Nice setup, you mind bringing the loader over to Arizona and giving me a hand? Ultimately I’d like to trim and not add any bump stops. My gut tells me it’s doable without major surgery.

What happened? You shrink Dirtmans rig and put it on a small pelican case? Haha. Nice RC crawler.

Thanks! Now that you mention it they are pretty similar with the tube frame, bobbed rear, double triangulation, and obscenely long shocks. I wonder how the scale flex compares
