Lone-wolf Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 My thoughts... i say they have produced one of the most detailed F-150 shells, so credit to them for that and i rather like the hi-lift on this, but all but ruined it by painting windows out and then putting black stickers on the windows, over on YT people are talking about taking of the portals, going 1.9`s to dropped the ride height. Had the windows been clear i may well of got one but i would not be happy because of this issue, other people might not be bothered 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw the scaled builders guild video on this the other night. I think it looks mustard. I’ve got the K10 version and Traxxas really do a great job on these bodies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Kpowell911 Posted February 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 20, 2023 (edited) Loving it with the new motor/esc. Needs some alloy beadlocks I think. Loving life! Edited February 20, 2023 by Kpowell911 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Im looking at these beadlocks: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004744709423.html?spm=a2g0o.cart.0.0.721138dasYWHgD&mp=1 I notice you can get them with extra brass rings, which are heavier. Are these worthwhile? Do they just fit insidethe tyre? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 they add a bit weight to the wheel and fit inside the foam and tyre and may save adding extra weight to wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
