Great looking build. Your referenced vehicle's Height Management System must be broken or it's carring some seriously overweight soldiers. OOPS I forgot its an ARMY OF ONE that's ARMY STRONG, so it must be one mean dude weighing it down.

I think it looks great , if the vehicle in you reference photo looks back end heavy , then thats what you should do.

How did you do the squat look? Did you cut and pin the suspension parts?

A little answer for the the suspension construction.

Not as the real things, but good to see I think.
