mike those are some great pics and video from Ringing Rocks, I can't wait to hit that place for some scaling in the spring or early summer when the leaves are gone. I think that place rules for scaling.

Those look awesome. Could you take a pic of then next to a geolander please? I want to see how much taller they are. Also, do they rub on the front fenders when you steer? If not did you clearance the fenders? Thanks a lot.

Nice photos. Which wheels are those? Center cap? I'm about to give up trying to get these 1.9 Stompers mounted to the RC4WD beadlocks.

The rims are OG 1.9 Bruiser Builders, sadly they are no longer mad. They are my **favorite** 1.9 wheel. The center cap is from the Kyosho 4runners/pathfinders. I was trying to work with rc4wd to have them made, I guess ill have to talk with them again. There is a post in there section if you do search, post up if you want to see them I know I do.

I can do that, I have some geos, I can tell you that they are slightly taller then the imex claw dawgs as I have some of the that are narrowed 2.2 still.

I dont think they rubbed the fender, although I didnt pay much attention. I just finally fixed the suspension on the front of this truck, now it actually works.

They werent glued, so they spum some, but they worked pretty good otherwise, just the added height is a huge bonus.

Mike, congratulations!
The truck is 100% perfect, but if you want to make it 101% (!) perfect, than you should add two alu. axles (in my opinion two RCChannels.com axles).

actually I got rid of the rc4wd servo mounts, I have always used them but on this truck they were pushing the leaf mounts so far out, only on one side, that it actually made the axle stick further out on side I think it was because it was powder coated in a textured coating which is pretty thick. so I took that out, and just drilled the cross member and used tlt servo mounts. Plus, me leafs are nicely worn in now. The front sags 15% or so just on the trucks own weight.
