Peter Griffin is in a really good mood! He didn't even notice someone tagged his rear window! I love the roof rack. I'd cut the rest of the bed out and either do a drop bed of some nature or a utility bed with a spare tire carrier. My two cents. Lexan is lexan...not the best medium to work with. |

I'm sure Lue is just cutting what he needs to get around leaving the rest to the builder. But I agree with you the rest of the bed has To go. As far as the lexan....it has its place. If your going to beat the living snot out of a rig like I know Lue's tube work can take then lexan is the wise choice. Styrene and other hard plastic bodies have their place in being the most scale opportunity but they are much more fragile within our rock terrain crawling arenas. Personally there are some rigs I currently own that have a ton of beef in the drivetrain and worry about running within its limits due to the fragility of the complimentary body. Nothing you guys don't already know....but my .02 Last edited by Desert Rc; 06-13-2013 at 01:31 AM. | |
