I bet it was a PITA trying to get those all perfectly aligned. Looks cool though. Loving this build.

| A total n00b builds a CMAX Suburban Yep, going to try that idea first. Should work just fine. Thanks everyone! Glad you're all enjoying the build. A small update. Working on 3 builds at once over here (as usual). Inner fenders made and installed. It will get dressed up with tons of RC4WD goodies. Custom paint ordered Last edited by pardonmyn00b; 03-08-2017 at 03:48 AM. |

Let's see, where did I leave off? Engine detailed and radiator mounted GCM battery tray. I'll be able to swap batteries and leave the body hard mounted. Success! And something I'm very happy about. RC4WD cast K44's. Greet. So greet. |

Didn't your momma tell you not to use lift blocks on your front axle? You're gonna hurt your (scale) self. Just kidding, looks greet man. I need some of thems thar cast axles too. Last edited by chino63; 04-25-2017 at 09:57 PM. |

Everyone at the mall told me it was a good idea to run lift blocks up front. Should I have used pressure treated 4x4s instead? | |

4x4's on your 4x4? Sounds mathematically possible, would that make it an 8x8 or 16x16 or... wait a minute, I'm confused now. | |

The battery tray was a great idea. Are you going to do three rows of seats?
