Default CJ gone wrong 2

Well Didn't think I could part with it but money talks and it's at a new home now. So I built another one with a few tweeks no more droop in the front and it's a little shorter now as well and lower. Well on to the specs. Axial running gear TEKIN FXR and a TEKIN 35 turn hand wound motor. MSD wheels 2.2 ROCK LOCKS well let me know what ya think I think it turned out ok.

Looks good Lance, but every time you build a new rig, it looks less and less like a scaler and more like a comp truck .

Seriously? No worries with rollovers here, if you rollover you could drive it upside down.

So who got the old one?

I have a mold for the CJ body.

A local guy scored it. I was sad to see it go it had to be one of my top ten favorite builds I've done. But this new one is up there too.

Default Update

Did a few new things to the CJ added lights, changed up the behind the axle steering and changed the shock oil. After running it on Saturday it works real nice. Very predictable and smooth. Here's a few new pics.

Damn Lance, that things looks wicked!
At first I agree with Tim, but after a longer second look I see a resemblance to rigs like Fat Girl and Highlighter. Big tires, wide axles, and low, low, low.

Sweet work man.

Love to see builds of vehicles that I would love to drive in the woods myself. All of these tubers are making me want to take apart my truck and go full tuber.

That's what I was thinking too, looks a lot like some of the southern buggies. Big tires, low ride, and lots and lots of horsepower. Just like the 1:1s, people either love it or hate it. I love it
