Making some more progress on the small details. Added the scale fuel cell and battery. Not to mention everyone loves nitrous right! August is creeping up in a hurry!

Took her out to stretch her legs a little today. The spare tire hasn't really affected the balance of the rig.

Got my hands on the new Warn 8274 winch from RC4WD! This thing is spot on for detail and performance! I think that it fits this project perfectly!

Looks great. Now it will save me from having to mount one on Aug 29th.

I forgot that I had a couple sets of Pro Hubs in my parts bin. Slight change so that they actually stick out from the inside of the SLW hubs. Now they just need some paint and they will do the trick!

Made another small update to the front end of the JK. Seeing all of the electronics and wiring was getting to me. It just took away from the scale looks of it. So...cue inner fenders! I have made a couple of inner fenders for other vehicles using some closed cell foam. I got this from a drawer liner to a tool box. It holds its form, easy to work with and is just the right color!





I do believe that this is the final form for the JK. It will be headed to ECSC in a couple of weeks to get some scratches on it and see how she does there!

By the way, this winch is amazing! It deadlifts this rig straight off the ground and barely slows down!

Inner fenders look good. If I didn't know better looking at the bottom picture I would says this was a real jeep. Good luck at ECSC.

Any updates on this little jeep? I love it! I'm gathering parts currently for my first build.. I picked up a few JK bodies and will be using this rig as motivation. I know mine won't be nearly as nice but it will be good enough to get me on the trails (I hope).

She is back in the shop! Need to redo the inner fenders and do some updates. Should be hitting the trails this weekend for a local G2G.
