AX-10 with X-Trail conversion build.

Well I finally got some more scale wheels and tires and I think I'm pretty much done with this build. Integy wheels and Imex G-hawg tires. TLTRyan cut the tires to look more like a 1:1.
The wheels are the coolest I've seen. A scale brake rotor replaces the wheel hex and then each wheel bolts on with 6 screws. Hmm... I may need to turn these rotors soon.....


Maybe I'll do an oil change while it's up on the lift.

How much were the wheels with the little rotors?

Tommorow I will make some brackets to mount the radio box and battery tray and hopefully have it drivable. More to come......

hey, whered you get the o-ring? and, did it work (as in submersible), or did you have to make changes... THANKS!!!

49.99 a pair from Tower Hobbies. That includes a crappy Moab knockoff tire.

It is a driveshaft boot for a Revo. In that picture I hadn't sealed the box yet. I later filled the boot with silicone.
