I just found these and they seem to be will built but i have really no idea! I want to get into the rc crawlers while im rebuilding new axles for my buggy. Any suggestions if these are worth it. Thanks Garrett

Suspension design looks kinda shitty. Plus I don't see a brand name anywhere, which would make finding parts a pain. IMO stick with the good ole' ax10:awesomework:

I saw these while paroosing ebay the other day. I couldnt find a name brand. I would contact the seller and see who is making these. Some of the chassis looks good with the blue alum stuff. The axles look a little big. Id find out what brands parts are on it. price is cheap.

That is a "no name" crawler, I wouldn't buy it. That crawler is some cheap POS that will break instantly and then you won't be able to get parts. I bet it is some chinese knock off from somebody. Stick with a proven rig like a AX-10.

I'd stay away from those rigs......and others like it. The market has a few of these "bandwagon" crawlers becoming more available.
Stay with a proven brand.....new or used.

Mike doesn't compete in the 1.9 class.:haha:

2.2 class or Super class is where it's at, not much going on with those little trucks so far.
