    The honcho body goes on the wraith chassis.

    The first Wrocho Uses both the honcho and wraith chassis.

    There is a link somewhere, but not sure where. Fink might have it

    Ahh. You still need play in your drive line or you will start to bind up. Maybe I am confused where you put the locktight

    It's the piece that connects to the trans an also the piece that connects to the axle. Axle only put one hex screw in each one and that's what usually comes off so I put blue locktight. I'll take a pic tomorrow to show you better explains what I'm trying to say

    I knew you could do that. I am thinking of retrofitting the wraith interior to my honcho chassis and body.

    I would recommend the SCX10 Kit (Dingo body). Great little rig and it will teach you the basics.

    Keep in mind with a kit you will need the electronics - ESC, radio, servo, etc...

    I would recommend hitting up RCC (www.rccrawler.com/forum) and start reading. Tons of info on there for beginners and experts alike.
