| Robb's "Brian Errea" Pro-Mod AX-10 Build
Rig will be "loosely" based on Brian Errea's 2006 TC Pro-Mod rig.......adapted to scale RC scenario of course. Chassis: Tube chassis throughout................which would throw out the "pro-mod" classification from the get-go, but I deal with tubing, not square frames. Body: Toyota FJ40..................I couldn't bring myself to chop up a NIP Proline FJ40 body, that I have, just to use what was left, so I will be hacking up a Bushwacker. I will be cutting off the stock Bushwacker grille/facia, and will fab a true FJ40 one out of styrene. Suspension: 4-link front and rear droop Axles: AX-10 Scorpions Transmission: Ax-10 Scorpion Wheels: Junfac chrome beadlocks with 62PYRO rings to replicate 1:1 rig Tires: Losi Rock Claws Electronics: Unknown as of now 1st pic is of Errea's 2006 TC rig that I am looking at. Other pics are of where my rig stands of right now. The body will sit lower as I have to cut in the hood to fit the shock hoops, and the grille/facia needs to be chopped..................but you get the jist. |

the rc4wd rock stomper 1.9s might look great on this rig just the right size. I love mine it cool how they have a realistic width to there height. Those new rock crushers coming out will look even more like a crawler tire too and there the same size.
