| Yet another Yota truggy
Well I jumped on the band wagon and joined the truggy fad. My buddy Ecoli decide to scrap this build for himself so he past it on to me. This is how I picked it up today The plan is to run axial axles. A axial trans or maybe an Rc4wd trans. At this point I dont know what tires or rims I'll be running but they will be 2.2's. Yes 2.2. Paint should be laid down by the weekend |

that is the best looking chassis design on this site by far, IMO. tho i would not cut the fenders off, just put some bondo on to fill the 3 holes. and of course a mandatory stinger |

don't worry guys I wont be cutting the fenders off. That was Chris's plan but not mine. A stringer wont be added at this point in time maybe in the future. Well I really do like the Rok Lox's but if I were to get them I dont think it would be in 2.2. 5.5" is just to tall, so maybe a set in 1.9's depending on how high they messure. | ||

| Don't make a liar out of yourself Justin ! I know you have the paint, since I left you in the hobby store in that section. Don't tell me you actually spent this gorgeous weekend outside with the family !

| Well after seeing that people wanted pics of the cab posted I figured why make them wait any longer. The tube work has not been painted yet and thats what held me back from posting the pics( tube work well be black) . Please remember I'm not a Photographer or a painter so please be kind. I'm not sure how I feel about the color. Anyways enjoy;) Let me know what you think.:dry: |
