Thanks Man . Honestly, the 1.55" Mud Thrashers I was using had a tad more grip, but the Crushers do just fine on the rocks. I like these tires ALOT better because they are a bit smaller than the Thrashers, and stuff into the wheel wells nice and tight.

LOL- Thanks - Who says you need to rush out and do it ALL at once.. just take your time, and build as you can afford to, sooner or later you'll achive the rig you've always wanted..! (it just takes time..)

Thanks Dude - Glad I could be of some inspiration to ya..! I have already thought about some Yota axles, but for a pair of them, I could buy another MRC, which means I could build ANOTHER Samurai - we'll see though..

I love that sammy, good job!
I love the look of prowlers on sammys too!

I bought some 1.9 prowlers to go on my bruiser but at the time I didn't realize how small they were! I like them but they won't look like a serious rock crawling tire on the bruiser, they'll look more like an everyday off-roader but are too small to look like a good crawler tire with that truck. They work great for cc01 or losi mini though!
