Rock crawler pictures.


TiM!

That's why you should never leave 3.5 year old boys with scissors near lexan... "But but dad.. I just wanted to make it look like mine!" he said and a good part of the front was lying shredded on the carpet.! So let there be "rat rod" and this is the starting of the transformation with a metal nosed Scout!

Took the Wraith on it's maiden trail walk the other day - over 2 miles covered and just over an hour runtime from it's 4200 2s lipo. Very happy! :)

Hacked the bed off... playing with fitment and ideas...

Paint...

Added the bed back into the equation but with a doved tail and a few customer tweaks...

After the install of a GSpeed LCG chassis and a few other upgrades the Clod body no longer worked / fit so a change was needed... insert Jeep G6

Liking those wheels, they look familiar, which ones are they? (last set you have on) @n_d_fox

 

Ive been really happy with them... suit most body styles. Decent weight to them as well... running zero weight in the rear wheels and only a tiny amount in the fronts now... had to run quite a bit with the Axial 8 holes.

 

Anyway, here a link to them - http://store.rc4wd.com/RC4WD-Raceline-Monster-19-Beadlock-Wheels_p_2791.html

So this is my work in progress as its my first rock crawler. So slowly doing it up. Replaced the rear axle plastic parts the other night.  Fresh grease. Lovely. Did the front one last night. No grease at all. Completely dry. Not so good. So I gave it all a good clean.  Bit of oil in moving parts. Then loads of grease. Running Nice  now.  And the body is now ready for a Bit of paint.

This was mine :) Good to see it getting the attention it deserves, it's been a solid car for me.

So lucky to have a place like that to go!

 

 

The course only opened at the weekend, up until now i've had nowhere to go at all!

 

At least you have the natural runs :)
