CornwallRC Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) Well, I have a crawler/trail truck and if left stood on its own weight the tyres end up with a flat spots. So I needed a stand but im skint, so this is what I did Find some thing ideal to stand your car on, Like a old cd case/holder. Cut appropriate holse to make more stable Check to see if wheels are clear Dig out some old paint, here i use metal primer. Cover with stickers if you like BOOM.... Free car stand I love free, so should you Edited April 2, 2012 by CornwallRC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
