Default Fuzzy's Cliff Climber

so i took my rock crawler out for the first time and she is hella capable

but then things took a turn for the worse

i was climbing prolly a 6 foot high pile of rocks and then it fell and tumbled all the way down

i ended up disassembling one shock and breaking a shock mount

sadly by the time i got to the place i realized my camera was dead so i have no action pics

heres pics of the carnage

I'm assuming by the duratrax motor, and overall appearance that its a Duratrax Cliff Climber. They look pretty capable, and VERY affordable.

Can't wait to see it in action! A huge selling point for me is the 4ws that the Cliff Climber offers.

yea i was looking at some rock crawling forums and everyone that owns these complain about the 4ws and they do a rear lock out and i was like well then why don't you buy a crawler without the rear wheel steer

but yea i just ordered the parts and i want them here now!
