Hey, Ty - fixed a broken link for ya - I wanted to see EVERY image you've posted on this incredible rig, hope you don't mind!

(if you'd like for me to delete it for any reason, just let me know...)

Edit: Deleted pic, the previous post is fixed

This rig is a true museum piece - but you'll need to post some video - maybe you could team up with an indie film or commercial producer and shoot a short film with this and your other builds demonstrating Tekin products?

Awesome build, Troopers fit right in and very cool! Buttonhead screws would look cleaner than the cap head screws though, give it a more finished look.

The ones on the cab I agree, will be replacing them soon. I just have lots of cap head hardware around.

Teaser from the maiden today. Very happy with how she handles being roughed up.

That for sure qualifies for a Taken Out of Context award.

Can't wait to see some running video of that awesome truck!

Payette, we are in McCall. CDA is about 5 hours north. But yes we did tear up the beach!

Ah, ok.

You sure did a killer job on that rig...if not for the steering servo it'd be dang hard to tell it's a RC!

I tend to save all the pics of the interesting, unique, well-built, scale-accurate, and plain amazing builds I see on this forum and elsewhere on the web - this one ticks ALL the boxes!

So recently I had to start a separate folder entitled "High-End Builds" for some that really stand out, and so far all of yours have been placed in there...

Whenever I feel a lack of motivation for crawling or building come over me, or I have someone over that is a stranger to the world of crawlers - I set it on "Slide-show Mode"!

Just... SO damn cool...

Thanks! I had it chassis mounted but I couldn't setup a proper 3-link panhard setup.
