Thanks guys. I haven't gotten to really test the Mickey's yet. The do look fantastic though. I ran the rig for the first time today and I was really pleased with this rig. The Tekin 10.5 and the MMP on 3 cells had the tires throwing roosts at easy. I ran it for just short peroid. Here are a few poser pics. I picked up a JK body at our get together today and it will be going on this rig. So the bronco build will become the JK build

Thanks all I had it out for a bit tonight in the yard running it around. This thing is fun to drive. If I get on from a dead stop I can pull wheelies all day. The low end control feels good but i don't have much to crawl at my house. I will be getting a video up this weekend.

As far as the JK. It is in about 5 different pieces. I had to narrow the hood and shorten the lenght a good .5 inch. It's going to take me a bit to get humpty dumpty back together I may stick with the bronco for a bit. Interior is comming. I am waiting patiently on another run of Team3six seats. That all for now. Thanks for looking

I got some work done today while I was watching the tournament. The fenders are done, got the rear tired mounted, four linked the front and, started some of the interior. I am waiting for some Team3six seats to finish the interior. He has been out of stock for a minute but hopefully soon. Here are some pics.

Meet the driver As you can see he just pounded 6 5-Five Hour Energy shots

This rig is really coming together nicely!

The driver certainly looks a little, well.. Down here it would be cracked out

The 3six seats will look good in there!

I worked on the interior today, put on the winch, and used my bungees to tie down some scale stuff.

Painted the dash



Used some foamies foam for te interior





Made some homemade bungees to use on the rig - used a few of my wife's hair ties and some coated paper clips to make these







Mounted winch and attached a pull pal



Poser shot

Here is a little Bronco update. I love driving it as it is a blast. I need to put a little wieght in the front and I need to work on the steering. I get a little wobble when I turn at speed. At ECC I picked up some super swampers which stayed on for about 2 days. I just didn't like the look but the tires felt great. I can't wait for the new 2.2 Pittbulls to come out but until then I am sticking with the Claws which are starting to break in. Here is a video of a hill climb I "ATTEMPTED" today. Basically a lot of slow motion crashes I never made as the drive shaft came off and I just didn't feel like fixin it.

That truck is looking tough. Now you just need to add some head lamps. I like the murdered look too!
