How do you keep the dogbones from popping out and the wheel from flopping over? Needs bigger tires, smaller chains and a tube rollbar in the bed.

Looks good. IMO, add the front suspension back.. You can see how much the wheel falls out of place. And trust me, if your using any servo or gear box, the dog bone will force it self out.

But dig the body mods though.

In theory, to help it return to level. But, no need for a tut, you can see perfectly well how to do it in the pictures
