Default Project:Poor mans HIGH LIFT..........56K warning

Here is a few shots of my POOR MANS HIGH LIFT.Please keep in mind that this is an "under construction" truck,most of the pics are mocked up.I am still waiting on my axles and other stuff.This was built in the course of a few hours a night in the garage!

...and YES I KNOW ITS GONNA BE HEAVY.......

the light kit is from www.rc-lights.com and as soon as my axles come in it will be finished
it will be running TLT axles,pede tranny,and most likely a novak crawler brushless system

This build is also on scale4x4 and just got around to posting it up here!!

i weighed it last night and as you see it with NO tranny,axles,motor,battery,ESC,and servos it weighs almost 4lbs............its all good!!
I hope it breaks something!!

I have some AL wheels being whipped out now 2 sets to be exact one set SHOULD look like an Eagle Alloy 589 and the other like a ARE Outlaw

That looks awesome! Are you going to stick with the 1.9 hi lift wheels and tires? Leaf spring or link? Looks great so far.

I was thinking of perhaps one stack or running a single big pipe in the stock location and put some "soot" on the passenger rear tire...........

Nice. You think you'll come on over to Columbus when it's done, like in the spring?

Bring Davemaxximus. I haven't talked to him in a while.

well its now moving along quite nicely.........got the axles and shocks put on the chassis..........body mounted

next is the tranny,servos,driveshafts,battery/reciever box and the light kit
here is a few UPDATE shots!! its pretty close to ride height mabey a little taller not sure as if right now!!
Yeah the rear pinion angle is all jacked up but I have not started the tweaking yet I had to slap it together right before my sisters wedding that I was in and had to get me and my 3 boys ready for ...........so there are some things that did't get done............100% completely right
