I was reading through your built and i really like your Jk! Hope to see more updates in the near future. I have the 100mm kings shocks in mine also but i ve found that they re really difficult to rebuild correctly...

Yes! Only the dual steering stabilizer sdidn't work with me so far but you already removed them. So it's all good again.

I can't get over the suspension! It looks so good! The cans are sick, plans for roof rack of any kind? I could see couple sleeping bags and maybe an ice chest up top. I like the light bucket configuration you used on the light bar.

1st of all i wanna thank you guys for your help, your opinion really matters to me since im goin for the scale look, and the more i add the more opinions i wanna hear so this project is where its at right now because of you all, but i gotta a question do you think this rig should be featured on RCCRAWLER, an RC magazine, or any of the other fourms? i need your input as always...

Post up wherever you want! I know guys who want to get their rigs on every forum they can. My best advice is build it so that you're happy with it. Limelight is nice, but it doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things. I LOVE this build, but honestly...and I'll always be honest, there are builds on Crawler that are absolutely mindblowing in terms of fabrication, design, engineering and execution that will never be featured anywhere else.

As a builder, I strive to achieve these levels, and if I were you, I'd focus more on learning how to get to the next level rather than resting on a magazine feature showing your work so far. There's tubework, custom chassis work, custom brackets, body work, interior work, scale videos and video editing, Photography (you have that down in the pics...but need to get some great scale shots in the wild)....plenty of avenues to explore. My showtruck is on RC4WD's website, and that was amazing at the time. But...it doesn't mean it's perfect. Don't let me talk you out of anything. Your rig is sharp for sure. That's my two cents for the night.

i cant ****ing do it anymore... ie: hold my tongue... ive seen this assembly get praised over and over for really doing nothing that any other joe could do... notice i said assembly.. i dont consider this a "build" at all... but to ask if it should be featured on rcc as a whole or in a magazine blows my damn mind... dont get me wrong it looks great but all you did was buy stuff and throw it together. there was no fab, no ingenuity, or foward thought whatsover. congrats that you put a prefabbed chassis together and put some 200 dollar wheels on it and painted it... great job.. you sir can in fact turn a 2mm hex driver.

sorry if im coming off as rude but im only being honest.
