WOW!! Defiantly one on the best uses of a dingo cage I've seen on here.

this one is still alive... and in need of some attention. to try and get motivated, i picked up a new set of wheels and tires for the old girl:





not 100% sold on the Claws, but i love the size. really wish they made a Rocker this size. the Slammerz, on the other hand, have always been one of my favorite wheels.

anyways, the plan for this one is XR outers, WB stretch, quarter panel armor, mount up the Dingo cage, and add some form of an interior. wheels will get some scale hardware, too.

rear stretch:

pinion is up out of the way:

need to finalize the template for the corners and get those cut, trim up the rear bumper, and finally get the cage in this thing...

Those tsl xl are perfect size for that rig . The wheelbase stretch looks good whats it sitting at now ?? .im gonna get a set of those tires for my next jeep build . I have that ebay china 2dr jk jeep body on order and I have a gelande2 on order with my lhs . I really like the gelande2 chassis that new skid transfer case 4 link mount will look perfect under the jeep just like a real jeep converted to 4 link. I cant wait lol .

the Two Faces actually performed better than i expected... not outstanding, but good enough on the dry stuff

the TSL XLs are the perfect size for this thing, i agree. looking forward to trying them out. wheelbase is now at 12.25". used 106mm lowers and 98mm uppers with a small 4-5mm spacer

debating between using aluminum or black styrene for the corner guards... thoughts?

Clay at Carter Fab was kind enough to cut some corner armor for the JK for me. 90% mounted up, just need to pick up some 2mm nuts. need to trim the cage down a bit and mount it, then put some sort of interior together... but so far so good:

thanks, man. they are pretty solid.

update on the JK: got the cage mounted for the most part... pretty happy with it







mounting the body in the rear is next up on the list. also ordered up some Creation Fab delrin tubes to do the XR conversion

This rig is easily the coolest lexan bodied scaler I have seen other than the one ton jk of course!
