Personally I love a Bronco with lots of tube.

I've always wanted to build kinda a gudio type rig but with a blazer instead of a bronco.

I say if you like jeeps build a jeep. Remember the only one who has to like your truck is you.

here's my KOH rig with 1.9 Pit Bulls. 2.2 TSL's looked ridiculous on it. If you want to build a class 3 Jeep use the HPI Rubicon body or a New Bright JK. They'd look good with large 2.2 rubber

I love the Tamiya F350 but on 2.2s they look silly to me.

here is a jk i turned into a brute. and two other 2.2 jeeps to help you out. use every thing off of your scx10 then change out what you feel needs to be upgraded when you have played with it for some time."thumbsup"
