I like the flat fender mod.

New Bright bodies seem more common these days. I haven't seen them around...of course I'm still new to the RC thing, so maybe not looking at the right vendor.

Tires are mounted fills the wheel wells alot better. Tell me what you guys think sorry for the poser shots but I'm packing for VEGAS I'll have to wait till i get back to test them out



I ordered the 1.5 mud slinger for the spare tire i've seen other builds when they use the 1.9's as a spare i don't like the way the 1.9's take up the whole back window so this was my choice i think it looks alright

Recently? I thought they stopped making this body a year or two ago. Build looks awesome. Looks 1:1 in the snow pics.

Ok cool i wasn't sure, one of my budds has them and he has a hard time flinging mud but maybe it's his truck though he has the Ten4 chassis and a crappy motor

That is a great looking JK. Question. Did you have to change any links to get the wheelbase right? Or is that the stock Honcho wheelbase?

Thanks, Yes i did have to change some links around. I used the stock rear long links for the front and for the rear i used the Axial upper links from my xr 10 the plastic ones and added spacers to get the right lenght. Hope that helps ya
