It's just begging for some extenders going sideways from the front of the DSL bars to the sides of the Perm.  That would give it the extra bit of support it needs for good IRL (this is an IRL bot, right?)
 
Perhaps cut down on the back armor to get weight for this.

Cutting teeth look pretty good like that. But Metal Hinge wedges = poor show. And I'm not really a fan of those side "arms" you put on your bots , they look really long and brittle without serving much purpose. I might try and get the NPC axles inside the chassis as well.

The long arms are mostly for looks and I will fix metal hinges and axels.

I'm sorry but that's more sub par DSL than IRL.

First off you've got the metal hinge wedges that are huge and stick out way too much to be realistic, second off you've got those funky arm things NFX mentioned. They really don't look good and are not really realistic.

no offence but you suck at irl building, to be blunt :P

Nowhere would i see as many weapons as that- like that irl. It just doesn't look irl at all either.
It kinda looks like you made a bad dsl wammer and added random weapons to it, take the wheelguards- they have sir k drills and a double sided tooth, tell me where you would find that irl, you're just abusing the stats of it to try and make a killer.

If i were you i would replace the wheelguards with something like a ski, have less bunched-together weapons and have maybe some BB and other weapons (full of spike strips on the wedge?) and make it flatter, it just looks ugly with that height :P. I don't have a problem with metal hinges aslong as it fits with the design (e.g. you need it like wammers, just don't make them sticking out too much).

Again, no offence but i am pointing out stuff that will (hopefully) make you a better builder, feel free to correct me.

Yeah this isn't IRL, this is just bad standard DSL.

I can't do anything but agree with Nary.
