Got some work done today

Made a servo mount for my shifter servo


It almost hits



With alittle trimming i can make it work





Well after i got done with the shifter servo i moved on to the steering and wasnt really likeing the turn out so i came up with this and im pretty siked about it
I cut down the tcs plate then swaped out the big servo for my little losi mrc servo and just need to work out the bugs but with a little trimming of the bottom of the interior it will fit.



Mounted my steering servo where the shifter servo was suppose to be.



Grabbed this out of the parts bin





Still have to clean it all up to make it look nice but it all seems like its going to work. More to come and what do you guys think?

Well my girlfriend bought this off of ebay as a suprise which was cool but she was more suprised when i told her how much they are on here. Your best bet is to look in the forsale section or make a thread in the wanted section stating that your looking for one.

So this isnt really an update im waiting to get the money for parts so i have to let go of my sami scaler. But while im wating to get the parts ordered i was playing around and made some flex strap things to limit my flex. They are just for looks they max out with the shocks.


Still have to play with them and adjust all 4 the tops need to be slanted to the bottoms instead of straight up and down.


Maxed out


With the rig weight


Compressed






And my poor little sami that has to go

So i finally got the motivation to get some more stuff done to my jk. I had some idea's up in the air on what color to paint it. I wanted something different than what i seen built so far so i went with black then Two days after i paint it i see two black jk's. Owell im happy with it










Black shows dust really bad But you can see here where i painted the fenders and top a flat black and the body Gloss black. It doesnt really look good in pics but in person you can really tell the def.














I covered up the front two holes in the interior i didnt want any sand or mud getting in there.


Then i decided to spice it up with some black leather insert nothing fancy just a little defferent


And i didnt like how it looked under the rig with the tan and black so i decided to try and make it more scale by painting it black.




I ordered some rc4wd rod ends for my steering and have to make new links and tap them. I also got some mini lugs for my wheels and by useing these lugs i can now use some integy wheel offsets to widen my stance.

*****And what do you guys think about the hubs leave them chrome or paint them flat black?*****









I also made some front and rear wheel wells that are drying, And installed some rear windows etc etc will have pics up later of wheel wells.
