Default F650 Work, Play, Haul.

Here she is

1:1 chassis only. Not mine.




4 linked, coilovers, and converted to 4wd.
Supershafty bulletproof trans.
Proline composite crew cab on a short wheelbase chassis.
42" BFG's on 22" composite wheels.
HH Brxl throttle controller.
HH Torque Master 35 motor
Hitec power steering.
Custom sliding driveshafts.
Custom flex mirrors.
Black Proline 5 seat interior.
Dual lipo 2 chamber fuel tanks in saddle configuration.

Still have a lot of work to do, like mount the body, the interior, and fuel tanks. Build a bed, headache rack, and finish the back of the cab. Plus a ton of other stuff.

I got a lot done the last few days. Mounted the cab, interior, bed, headache rack, fuel cells, electronics, winch, and bed box.
Then I took her on her maiden run with slow-go and MTSCX10.

Took her out today, climbed to the M on Mount Sentinel via the north side trail, then came down the face.










View from the top.

Moved the winch up behind the grill, and put a temporary bumper together.

Thanks, not much more left to do.

I got the marker lights mounted, just a couple of y's and everything will be lit. Thinking of doing a tilt hood next.

In order to battle a high center of gravity I am installing these.
Some more weight down low for the future.

Inner fenders and new front bumper on. I also stuffed some old tamiya hilift tires into the front Flatiron's, much better support.

I plugged my truck in today to drive it and powered up and no steering.


Now I have to figure out if its the servo, or receiver...

I hate being dumb sometimes..

I messed with the servo a bit and discovered I plugged it in backwards, doh!

Anyway I took her out for a spin.

Started reading this thread and wondering why that view off the mountain side looked familiar. Then noticed your location. Nice. Good work on the truck.

Thank you, and we should hit the trail together. Let me know when you are available.

I was having issues with the tires rubbing the shock springs, so relocation time.



And a taste of things to come.
