[QUOTE="HotRodJosh, post: 1155924, member: 18171"] If you're going to build a comp rig....make your own chassis. They are EASY to make. Aftermarket chassis' are way overpriced for what you are getting, especially tubers. You can also make all your own links using aluminum tubing from Ace hardware and T-Maxx heims.... Good axle and trans to use are Axial. Inexpensive, durable and good parts support. I recently bought the AX10 kit but used a scale chassis for it....and am building a 2.2 comp style rig with the original AX10 chassis with my own links. Going with the AX10 kit isn't a bad way to go though....as all the hardware when building from scratch can add up quickly. If you can't make many parts yourself (which is pretty easy), buy a kit. Be sure to post up progess and ask questions, there's quite a few guys that know this stuff well. And there's more than one way to build one.:D [/QUOTE]
