|  Land Rover LR3 Scaler Custom made frame with derlin braces. Captured spring fourlink suspenson. Shaved TLT axles even the servo mount towers, RC4WD straight axle adapters. Pede Tranny 35t lathe , Mtronix 15a ESC, old coreless Futaba for a winch and a towerpro 955 for steering. I also ground down some TLTshocks. Of course had to paint it flat black  Oh and this is my first scale setup. Last edited by RCJunkie80; 08-03-2007 at 02:56 AM. |

| Running some 10/40 sleeved with just my stock TLT crap for now until I rip the ends off. Her is an update.  All ready to roll. Now I needed to hack up the underneath of the Rover body and add a flat surface in the back for all my scale goodies and mount the battery.  and of course the scale goodies  Last edited by RCJunkie80; 08-03-2007 at 02:51 PM. |

| Second Gen Thnx guys. Well after wheeling this thing a couple times I realized that it was way too top heavy  . I really liked that body but it had to be put up on the shelf. I don't know why but i decided to stick with the Land Rover theme and so I picked up a D-90 body . So now I started thinking about details. Stole a couple of the accesories off the LR3. I also picked up a Wild Willies parts tree and spent a few hours painting. I had also made a bumper out of a peice of angle iron. Decided to run a set of Moabs I had laying around. Ditched my front shocks and just ran springs for some superflex. So then I wanted to something different. I hadn't really seen too many crawlers with drivers. Soo while painting all the Wild Willies parts I decided to paint a British themed racing suit on the driver. Then I needed a seat so I used one of the seats I took out of the back of the LR3.  and some other pics   |
