I have a micro-t (stock) and I was wondering has anyone every made it capable for rock climbing?

I want to go rock climbing with my micro but also be able to do what it has when i first got it. Has anyone ever attempted this with out spending loads of money or buying a lot of parts?

Can you show some pictures for me.

the micro t just couldnt.. simple as that.. 2wd open diff.. a locked diff would probably wanna burn the motor out in the micro.. second its independent suspension.. the tires are small where would you find bigger tires with more bite.. if you wanna do a lil bitty crawler go to toys R us and pick up a 24th scale fastlane machine mini monster truck they have solid axle shaft driven system.. replace the motor with a winch converted servo with a pinion on it.. and lock up the diff cups in the lil bugger simple as pie works like a champ i made one here a while back out of the same thing
