Ben, Did you get that recall notice I sent you? I am sorry but you are going to have to send me both of those complete trucks. Ahhhh we need to do some retro fits and ummm testing, ya testing. So please pack them up and send them to North Carolina. These things take time so there is no telling how long this will take. Sorry about the inconvenience. Just kidding man, those are two very nice looking rigs. Send me a couple nice pics of them on the rocks. I would like a couple to hang on my shop wall. |

| Awesome rigs, Ben! I can't decide which I like best..... they both look great! I think Brando needs to give up his real job so he can focus on building more cool scale trucks! |

" UPDATE " I tore the whole truck apart again, for the 3rd time, built new trans, the one in it was stripped and the case had some extra holes that made the motor mount loose. Trimmed the trans mount plates and roiunded the edges. Sandblasted and powdercoated the frame black, but the bumpers are still silver. rebuilt both axles and put bearings in them and locked the diffs with JB. Re-did the rear upper link mount plate to tilt the rear axle up more, re did both lower shock mounts, front and rear to tilt the shocks more. mounted the spare, hi-lift, shovel and axe, trying to get the winch done and electrnoics and she'll be ready to run for next weekend inb Oregon. Pics will be up soon, stay tuned. |
