I found this old Axial battery in a parts bin, I think it was from the EXO kit but not positive.
Anyway I painted up like a yellow top and added some wire and proline terminals to it.
I still need to fab up a battery tray but this is where I plan to mount it.

This morning I made a quick battery tray out of styrene and painted it with some Testors Aluminum. Then I finished the battery details and did a little paint touch up before mounting it to the body. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out.

Looking pretty slick Muzz. Digging the spikes on the rear bumper.

Have been getting the rigs ready for Nats at the end of the month and decided to clean things up a little while I was at it.

I replaced the old brown foam inner fender wells with some nice heavy clear lexan pieces that I painted with Plasti Dip. Way cleaner and should help keep a little more dirt and sand out of the motor/tranny area.

Old:


New:



I also decided to replace the old silver beadlock rings with a new set of OMF rings in orange to tie in with the paint scheme...besides orange and black look bad ass!

Had seen this rig a while back, and it keeps getting better. Excellent work and awesome upgrades.

Rig is looking good. All the detail definitly makes it stand out. I also like the wheels with the orange rings. Thanks for sharing.

Really nice build. Something about the looks of it draws me in. Nice clean details as well.

You mention diff fluid in the shocks. I am going to give a set of these shocks a try on my C2 jeep. Never been pleased with any of RC4WD scaler shocks for performance, we'll see though.

Thanks Shane, really appreciate the compliment.

Yeah I am using Black -n- Tacky in the shocks to help slow things down a bit and make them more predictable. I also am running Pro Line scale shock springs for lowers since they are stiffer then stock.

Received and installed my new SMW skid today. This thing is a work of art, super clean and so well thought out.
