Default Self Made Dig?

Is it easy to make a front dig setup or is the time and headache just worth spending the $70 for a VF dig? If anybody has made there own can you please post pics?

Also will the VF dig interfer with the upper links position in the stage two ckrc kit?
cause my goat motor just barley fits just had to use a button head screw and go from the inside out but the screw head still touches the motor.

Thanks for any help ahead of time .

If you want dig you buy the VF dig, buy one of those piece of crap shaft digs of Ebay that 13 year old kids make, or make it yourself. Here's one way to make a dig: http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/showthread.php?t=101507

There was at least one member that showed a custom dig in this thread:

http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_52.../tm.htm5262099

That was some pretty decent work, but the project has not been updated in some time. If you do decide to build one, please post some information for the rest of us.

You will not be disapointed with your VF Dig. I would trade the truck off before my dig lol
