|  project "Ultimate Rock Bug"
This project started from December of 2009, is incompleted still yet and needs very long time. I was inspired from my friend thinners's Rock Bug.  His rig is killer build and has 4 wheels steering, updown winch, elaborate doll and beautiful frame works. His thread & movie. 1/10 Tracy Jordan's Rock Bug http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYa8ZQkF3lM The real Rock Bug is the greatest rock buggy. My target is bulding a faithful model as possible.  Tracy Jordan's Rock Bug.  My incomplete rig.  |

At first, I designed an axle "mini Spider 9". I did not want to use RC4WD's axle because its diff case and axle tube are a little bit big and can't be brazed several mounts. Designing "mini spider 9" axle. This axle is just 1/8 scale size and made from Stainless steel.  Diff cases were ordered to my friend factory. These costs were not cheap.   Trial assembly. Big one is my 1/6 size spider 9 axle for big rock buggy.  C hab is original and steering knuckle is AX10's high mount steering knuckle.  It's smaller than AX10's axle and good shape.  |

Thank you guys. This axle was incompleted still yet because there was no link mount and skid plate. Building and assembly was very hard needed long time. Quote:
