Default Bob Jr.

Well its been a while, I've been doing the drag race thing abit and working, but I guess its time to add to the family.
Bob Jr. will be built for full on wheel speed, be it mud bogging or hill climbing.

Specs:
Ford courier
Scratch built frame ( of course )
WK axles (locked)
WK trans
Mamba 6900 brushless (12 cells)
Emaxx drive shafts
Staggared wheel offset
Cut swamp dawgs

As soon as the frame is welded up I'll get some pics posted if anyones interested.

Ya I bought it a long time ago and just couldn't come up with a good use for it. But the WK axles are so wide I thought being a quarter ton they'd look nice and scale under a modded bogger.

i can't wate too see more progress your builds are always exciting to see.
also with the staggard wheels, wide axle/narrow body, and wheelspeed this truck might make a good puller too.

Well there really hasn't been alot of progress on this since work and 1/1 projects have been taking up time. BUt Im really not that happy with the courior body I don't think. Im starting to lean towards using a willy's body and building ''Tar''.
My damn camera is dead right now but I'll try and get some pics up maybe tonight.

Oh for sure the blower would be coming off. The other two options I've been looking at are the courior of course and a tamiya toyota.

Do Not use the Yota. Send it to me! Seriously, if you don't need it I'll take it!
