Very nice, you are going to like it. Need to look at rccrawler.com at the losi mini section there is a lot of good info there too. What are you going to use for mounts and links?
aluminum for the mounts and possibly delrin for the links(not sure yet). if all goes well i plan on turning this into a side job

cool, was going to say if not wanting to make parts to sell I would just go with the metal lockers from Losi, they work great and a cheap. Can't wait to see the wheels. If you make a set of wheels for the Losi do you think you could fab up some for the drifters? If I could get my hands on some aluminum wheels for the drifter would be great as they could be painted and would last alot longer than the plastic. I know Genki has them for 50 dollars plus shipping.

I have seen the ones from Genki Dori THESE in person and they were a little heavier than the plastic but not much.

I really like the design of THESE but at 27 a set for 2 plus shipping I would rather pay that to someone I know or if they can be made cheaper. Kind of hard to justify that much for a set of wheels for the car when I can get plastic ones for under 10 for a set of 4.

The other thing I was looking at was THESE and they are about 37 shipped for a full set. Than just paint them to my liking.
