| hilift flatbed hybrid
this was a flatbed chevy I picked up from TattooKenny and converted it to an F-350 Cab that I got from Jrkilburn and added Hpi stock car wheels with hand bros rings, RC4WD outcroppers and a stock tamiya spare with matching wheel. other specs include leaves up front, 4 link out back and tlt axles and hilift chassis shocks and 3 speed. I plan on installing some electronics tonight and mounting the steering servo and making up some steering linkage. then I will be addressing some of the other items to make it a little more scale but I do not plan on going overboard with this one.....I will save that for my Flatbed Bruiser I am building to match my 1:1 1980 Yota flatbed on to the pics Last edited by Crawlin4fun; 10-11-2008 at 03:22 PM. |

Looks like a good combo the wheels and body go well together.
