added some branding to the rockers. kinda feelin plain, dunno if i like it... i clearanced the cutouts in the bed a little better so the threaded bodies of my shocks wouldnt hang up, noticable difference in how it crawls.

i need to rotate 90° those 1/8 collars with the grubscrews that hold the cage to the posts coming off the sliders. they way i have them now its a total hassle to get those damn screws tight. but meh those were kind of a bugger to braze and if i decide to clean that up ill figure something easier out.

my next project is a barby blow molded c1 buggy. gonna TRY to keep that simple as i can.

Very Awesome.
Roll Cage with the roll bar. Very Cool.
I couldn't tell how it was going to go together.

ok so the pitbull xl's and gcm jellybeans like REALLY make this truck... threw on a rc4wd 4.75 bogger as a spare.

i also ocd'd and used bits off another spare axial decal sheet to extend the art full width along rhe rockers. i think it looks pretty good.

gotta shorten both the front and rear lwr links about 2/3 mm to get them legal behind the bumpers, itll also tuck the tires in the center of the fenderwells pretty spot on.

getting a little more excited about this now with the bigger tires and diff wheels. they really changed the vibe.

got some new axles, got the rit dye on the stove to kill those awful red parts... these will help with clearance and also give me plenty of room for the narrow gcm wheels. the scx axles with wp 8° knuckles puts the steering arms right into the sidewalls...
