yall think they are too small lmao

yeah not gonna work for me, so like always i went overboard and got some more stuff on the way
a set of baja claws in x2ss coumpound 4.5 inches tall might be a little to tall though

so i got a set of these on black steelies as well rc4wd rock stompers they are x3 compound but the are the hieght i wanted 4.13 tall


and this is how its sitting now, got another set of axles on the way as well as some bigger tires

I'm diggin the lowrider jimmy

[King James]

Im telling you man its gonna be the new fad, get a 8 channel radio and a bunch of micro servo, some three wheel motion, front to back, side to side. lmfao

[King James]

got my axles( axial rear lockots, axial c-hubs, venom knuckles, axial cvds, front hardened over drives, rear hardened underdrive) and new tires in, gonna use pitbull foams up front with pitbull outs and stock foams as inners on the rear, these tires are a little bigger than i wanted, gonna get them all mounted up and put some links on the yota soon

[old man 52]

Those fill up the wheel house , Nice looking blue also.

[King James]

thanks man, i think they will work out well once i get some shocks on it and get it to ride height, its not gonna be a crazy articulation type of truck, got the wraith for that, but itll look good with those big ass tires diggin in on some hill climbs

[old man 52]

Ya to much flex is over rated, Looks great.

[Rok Out]

Yeah I like those Baja claws

[King James]

ended up with another set of wheels and tires lol, now i gotta get the axles under it and see which ones I like better

[King James]

My mmp showed up today,got a proline toolbox on the way along with some other scale goodies, gonna try to get this up and running in the next couple of weeks

[Rok Out]

Can't wait to see it on tha trail

got a little work done on this tonight, mounted a different bumper, believe a got another winch for it, still needs a hair more in the wheelbase, gotta make some upper links, but its almost a roller again

[King James]

Thanks man. Really looking forward to finishing this one.

[Desert Rc]

Whose seat belts are those? Norms?

[King James]

yes sir, i do believe so

[King James]

got the rear 4 link mounted up and the front panhard and 3 link. still gotta work on the rear links and shorten them up about a 1/4 of an inch, but its officially back in roller status




got the links where i wanted them, looking into some better shocks, probable gonna run 90-93mm up front and 80-83mm in the rear



some pics with the bigger 1.55 baja claws(to big IMO)



and some 1.9 pits

[King James]

well after some issues fitting everything up front, the motor mount, cms kit and electronics wouldnt fit without jacking the body up or tearing up the interior. i put this on hold till dinky got more of the ddk(divorve kit) in stock, still waiting on that. but ive came across a GCM cross canyon chassis and im gonna give it a shot, if it doesnt work Ill just wait longer for the dinky kit
