Looks like it needs longer shafts with the bumpers out that fare.But looks really well put together.

Do something about the bumper on the body and you have a winner ;) Lets see more pictures of it. Or a video.

I have to trim the bumpers, and adjust the links a bit. I might put it on txt axles for a better look from the side but i like it without the body. heres a few more

the body is from a newbright rig, so the wheel wells were aready cut. they are great with 6.5 to 7" tires. thats why i might go to txt axles. but i can say. its really fun with tlts

some All-T's would look great, then you could use the TLT axles.

It's a good look, but I agree with the other posts, All't's and re-trim the fender wells.

Take another masher 2k and take the cneter lugs out and glue it back together for a spare. Thats what my Truggy uses. Looks better than the swamper. Though I may go get a Moab to use instead.
