Default What's wrong with one more Tundra truggy build??

This build is for a friend of mine, Tyler. He has been patiently waiting for me to get the time to build him this rig. The time has come. I'll leave the specs of the rig out of it. Just your basic fully built scx10 chassis Full of VP goodies.

First thing is first for me. Build the sliders and mount the body!!!

Time to start building. Got the main hoop bent up and in place, also have the main frame of the rear cage tacked in place. This one is gonna be able to run with bedside panels or without and look just as sexy either way Also pinched the rear cage a little. Tasteful, not too much..

Ok. Last update for the night. Built some protection for the rear of the bed. This should do the trick.

This truggy is looking great!
Quick questions... what diameter tubing and bender are you using? Also what is the circular radius your bender bends the tubing to?

Thanks man! I use 3/16" and custom make all my tooling. My bending radiuses go from 3/16" to 5"+. I have an array.

My thoughts too man... This isn't my rig. He told me it is supposed to be a 2.2 rig, but he didn't have the tires and wheels when he dropped it by. I've suggested he narrows it a bit.
