| Yellow JK
I have been watching all the new jk builds on here and it lit a fire. I onces had a jk body I sold it about 1 year ago to a good friend and he never touched it so I called him back up and got it back form him. The first one i built was a 2.2 truck did not look to scale, so i sold it. Well I am going to build it a 1.9 and I am going to try my best to scale it out. I have got a good start so far, got the chassis strached out and got the front and rear bumpers made, and one cool steering box. I got most of the body ruffed into shape today, cut off the finders and made flat ones. Parts List: axial axals axial trans 35t motor axial 1.9 wheels RC4WD 1.9 rox lox tires x-trail chassis all the rest i will be making my self. Lots more to come |

Thanks guy's, I am going to try to get the body primed and sanded down and get it ready to paint. I have a long list of things to still do for it, but got to start some where. thanks again |

Well got a little bit more done. I made some aluminum inserts for the front and rear bumpers they turned out great. I also made some aluminum rock sliders. Not much of an up date but ever little bit pays off. |
