This is my project build of a jeep JK, i'm using GCM cross canyon chassis and Axial axles.
Here are some of pic's of the chassis i got. This is just the beginning.

This is the first assembly i did on the GCM CC chassis, This thing has so many tuning options.

Nice let us know how that servo mount works.

stelerzman · 06-28-2011, 05:16 PM

I really love the servo mount. It really works well.

stelerzman · 06-28-2011, 05:26 PM

Here are some more mock up pic's.

After a closer look at GCM's website i realized the i mounted the trans upside down.

.

First complete mock up of the chassis.

More to come soon.

After getting the chassis mocked up, i wanted to see how the body sat on it.

Here it is with the axial bumper on.

Here is a great shot of the panhard bar and GCM mount as well.
Also the rc4wd baja claws mounted up.

Very nice

stelerzman · 06-30-2011, 05:28 PM

Thanks, will update soon.

stelerzman · 07-01-2011, 08:10 AM

Thanks, I think they are great tires. Lots of side wall bit.

stelerzman · 07-01-2011, 08:22 AM

A little update, here are the BWD vertex 1.9 wheels mounted to the RC4WD MT Baja Claws.

After a got the body mounts figured out i Masked the body for paint.

This is the primer.

Pic's before removing the masking.

stelerzman · 07-06-2011, 04:32 PM

Got an update. Here is the chassis. worked on it while paint is drying.

This is rear section

And the front.

Next will be some paint pic's.

stelerzman · 07-07-2011, 03:57 PM

After the black was dry, i masked up the body for color.

In the paint booth.

The GCM stuff is real nice, well thought out and quality machining, though I'd change the bumper. IMO they stick out too far and it doesn't really work with a JK. Just my 2 cents. Can't wait to see some video.

stelerzman · 07-07-2011, 04:13 PM

Thanks for the input, Im getting the use out of the bumper for now. I am going to change to a metal one after this one serves it purpose.

Here is a vid link for you.

stelerzman · 07-08-2011, 03:55 PM

Here are some pic's of the primer coat.

And the color.

I'll get more in on the chassis up soon.

stelerzman · 09-01-2011, 10:44 AM

Sorry, it's been awhile. Here are some pic's of the GCM chassis.

stelerzman · 09-02-2011, 12:26 PM

So here it is all done .

Now that it's up and running, I'll be adding scale items here and there.

bayareaaxial · 09-02-2011, 06:41 PM

looks really great but I would get rid of that front bumper, it doesnt go with the body.

You are both right about the bumpers, they are only temporary. I only used them because they were given to me by a friend and didn't have anything else to use.

I should have better ones soon. Thanks for the input.

stelerzman · 09-02-2011, 09:05 PM

I just finished making and installing a few things, boat sides and PL light bar with working 5mm led light.

Boat sides

Next post will be the Led lights.
