Default My 6x6 wk axled crawler......

Here's a few pics of my latest build. A true 6x6 wheely king axled kenworth. In the future it'll have a trailer of some sort behind it. The hitch is functional as it came with a tanker trailer. I used a hi lift tranny but am thinkin of switchin to an emaxx trans as I think the bl outrunner motor is gonna tear up the hl trans. 5400 3s lipo powering the mm/outrunner combo. I like how the red rocks perform in the back but am unsure of fronts yet. On to the pics.......




And here's a little vid from a test run.....

I would love to put a wrecker set up on the back too. Multi purpose rig. Make it an add on.

Thats cool looking-- That would be bad to see with some kind of heavy duty type trailer. Looks good

It's actually a knock off king hauler body. I got the whole truck. I'm working on the trailer but waiting on a few things yet. Need to get more tires and rims still. lol
Anyone got any idea's for using an existing tow boom? Like new bright or somebody? Something cheap.
I have found with the torque I have on hand the diffs need upgrading. Has anyone used the mt2 ring and pinion yet to upgrade their axles? Just wondering on fit and if they held up better.

Thanks, Shaun

Do you have any pictures of how you lined up the middle axle as a pass through?
