Worked on the floorpan and fenders for it today. I wanted all this to tuck up into the body as much as possible and I think it does well. Gonna need a drop mount for a bumper but that's not that bad.










A quick mock up of ride height and 12.3 wheelbase.


Interior is all painted. Just need to start adding scale accessories.

Things got a little out of hand. Before I knew it this had a 16t crawlmaster pro and brxl , my set of curries under it. Just need to build some shocks and Connect the driveshafts and install a servo.

Built some new icon shocks last night. Luckily I had a extra set of nitrate coated to put in there. Axial is slacking on the new icons. Single rate springs. Wth. But I got everything lined up and the wheelbase set. Drive shaft just misses motor at full collapse. Need to RE-center the servo horn over one spline but it runs and drives. Shimmed the spur to take away some the slack only problem so far is the front inner fenders. I misaligned the the inner front bumper so it hangs out a little under the grill.

Reworked the front inner fenders and the chassis position to allow a front bumper. Not sure which one I'm gonna get but gonna get something soon Also put on the .225 hubs and tf2 hexes in the back to narrow it up. It's close to tucking in the back. Need to find a light weight driver and some accessories for the back and I'll be ready to take it out.

I wanted to do something different for the driver in this on. I was walking through toys r us with my son and saw this and immediately though how well he'd fit in the drivers seat. It's hollow so it doesn't effect my weight much.

Mocked up a bumper that I may use. It's either this or a rock armor one my buddy taking off a rig tomorrow, hopefully the rock armor will mount to this chassis. Having a hard time finding a bumper that mounts. Changed up the spool on the servo winch to a lower profile locked up spool to allow for more suspension travel up front. Lastly, I picked up another set of wheels and tires. 1.9 methods with pitbull a/t I had enough locked up black scale hardware to do 2 of the rings. Need to order some for the other 2 still.

I received my second battery tray today and went ahead and installed it. Wiring for the most part is done. Need to make an adaptor to run 2 3s 2200s up front like saddle packs. I should be getting the front and rear bumpers tomorrow. Hoping that I can make them work. If not I'll run the bumper I have on it now.

Mounted up the front bumper. Looks perfect on the truck. Unfortunately the matching rear bumper didn't work out. So I used it on my f250. Still need to get a winch hook and give everything a good once over. But I think it's ready to rock.

Yay!! It's officially not a shelf queen lol. Took it out for a little testing on a rock while my son played at the park. Works really well. These little tires will hook up. Probably gonna go back to the tsls. I like the look better with the tsls. But it crawled great

Took this out today for some testing. Preforms great. I need to swap to a 11 tooth pinion. 13/56 is a little high and I had to watch my motor temp a lil. It almost makes me want to build another Toyzuki lol.

So I made a few changes lol. The Toyzuki chassis was swapped to a stock scx10 chassis. And it lost it top in the process. New floorpan and new wheels. It also allows me to swap to the 4runner body with no modification.





The Toyzuki chassis was needed for the proline 66 bronco. I was so excited when I first saw this body and knew I had to have one. I'm thinking ar60 or xr width axles and big 1.9s. Probably the new proline krawlers. Need to order some black paint. Well really everything but the chassis and body lol. But I'll try to get it painted up this weekend.

Ar60 is too wide for any 1.9 (except proline boggers ) imo.

I've got a set of those if I go that route. It was my original intention to get a set of wraith f9 curries and run the boggers. But I don't like the servo on the axle setup and need to look into panhard mounts for the cms,
