No! you can only make maxx rims fit if you buy custom wheel adaptors. And I think for your money you should buy a Gecko rock crawling chassis for your clod axles. They have good supension travel and low center of Gavitiy for better cralwing.

badtothebone that is a cool chassi for a homebuilt but i think 120 is a bit steep it is basicly a piece od aluminum bent around with two pieces of angle aluminim drilled, very cool for a homebuilt but i might pay 60 for it with links and every thing and that would be about all
nice work though trying to make money

yes i have already explained that to you, now listen if you dont want to spend the big bucks, then buy a TLT!!! if you want to get into it get a clod or TXT, either way your gonna be dishing out the dough, if you are only 14 (which i suspect you are) get a job, this hobby costs alot of money

the other thing you can do is buy a used clod, doesnt amtter if it runs because you just want the axels. as long as those are in good shape you good to go and it will be a ton cheaper than buying any of it new.

Dood just search Ebay. Sometimes you can find a clod with a sweet chassis, it might not be what you wanted but you can always sell it and then buy what you want. BUt that way you usally can get electronics, servos, front and rear servo mounts, and everything else you need.
Goodluck with your build.

dude if you were low on money why didnt you just get the super clod and like 20 dollars of raw materials and make something that will perform better???? My tlt can hang with the best of them and ive only spent 20 bucks on it.
