.AJ. Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 Something to consider, I've got more checker plate to fit yet, so won't change anything till they are fitted and the paint is buffed up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC4WD fan Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) I've seen it on a couple of yank tanks looks cool but it's your build and whatever you do it's going to look the nuts Edited March 31, 2016 by RC4WD fan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noj Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 OK, I concede that the lovely stock wheels would look a bit poor against that shell.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewbacca Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 The wheels look remarkably similar to the SSD ones. The truck looks remarkably similar to an A.J. build 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh How Original Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 That chainsaw is awesome! Something to note, have a look at 4WheelRC's winch video on YouTube, he tests winches to within an inch of their life and shows you how to get more power should you need it, very informative videos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M and M Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 those chainsaws are available in UK, ebay and loads of Stihl dealers, as a keyring. Make a very realistic noise as well, scared the life out of my grandson! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
