Gotcha, thanks for the info. I was able to get my hands on a new EzTec Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. Hear mixed things about the size of that body. I dont know if its actually 1/12 or 1/10. A lot of folks are saying the New Bright is actually an 8th scale. I guess that'll be a future project.

Got the roof rack the other day can't remember if I posted a pic yet. But it's exactly what I was hoping for. The KC light bar fits perfectly under the light bar guard he added. Can't wait to get the truck back and mount it all up.

The rooof rack is from rcmodelx I think rc4wd carries them but it does not have the light bar guard. So I sent him an email and he added it for me.

the VP panhard bar come in today. We didn't think about the GCM frame being flat and the axial being Cchannel so he improvised and was able to drill a second mounting hole and secure it the frame



I also ordered some 9mm wide hexs to hopefully keep the tires from Rubbing the rod ends.

Here is another mock up pic .

Jbird got the rear mount printed up. This thing looks amazing. He is still designing the middle and front mounts.

It uses the stock interior mounts making it a direct fit for the cross canyon chassis.

Jay shaved the stock body mounts down to set the body a little lower and then printed the mid body mounts. Getting closer !
