|  Class 10 Buggy / Rustler Conversion
Here's some pics of my Old Rustler Truck that I converted to a Class 10 Buggy (as best as I could anyways) Its fast and very functional.   |

The tires and the overall width look a bit out of proportion. But overall I think it looks great. I've been thinking of doing something similar and I think you did a great job.  |

Looks kool the way it is,the only thing i can see that is wrong is that your RH front tire is on backwards

I've been bashing on rustlers for a long time, that is by far the coolest one I have ever seen great job on the build, those piggyback shocks look great on there Last edited by 701 Technique; 09-24-2008 at 08:42 PM. |

Nice real nice clean tube work I've been planning a tubed out go fast project for a while. Either a buggy or a truck. Think I'm gonna go the buggy route. I've had a rustler minus the chassis sitting in a drawer for a while. |

This one will be one of a kind as well. I've been thinking of it for a while now but I've been consumed with this one.... time to move on. Damn, now that I think about it I'm gonna miss tinkering with this car.:-( | |

Junfac wheels work ok on a slow crawler, but the plastic is pretty brittle for a go fast rig. | |

I would have made the body one piece but it was a pain to get the chassis off. I was working on hinges but I ended up leaving it as is. Hinges will be incorporated in my next build. | |

The Gap is too big, I had to file the wheel flange to tighten the gap, so I didn't have to KEEP glueing the tires to my (never glue your tires again) BEADLOCK wheels. The Hexes are not reinforced, so as a result... I Grenade them...sorry I'm just a little sore at them. I contacted them and told them I was on my 4th set and they never contacted me or anything. I should have got RC4WD from the VERY BEGINNING | |
