Although my lad has asked me to do a jurassic park themed body for it now! So may look for another body to do that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormbringer Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I fitted other wheels and larger tires to mine a month or so back but havnt had chance try it out yet https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08HHK8NLT/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_image_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 I always felt that the chinese swampers were a bit on small side 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I nearly lost a shoe a couple of time lol Lola (the dog) is great with the crawler but if I try to take her out with the fast cars she'll destroy them!

everclear1984 Posted November 18, 2021 Author Share Posted November 18, 2021 I've decided it's time for a new body shell 🙂 As much as I like the attention to detail on the stock body I feel like making it my own. I follow a youtuber who owns a beat up Toyota Forerunner and I'd like to somewhat replicate it. Currently waiting for the Proline body to come back into stock so I can get cracking! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
