had to do a little adjusting on the rock sliders.
didn't like where they first were mounted, little to far forward, to close to the front wheels
moved them back 1/4'" , a lot better.

on to the main cage !!

got the biggest part installed ,with just a little adjusting to do to it yet.
starting to take shape.
plenty room for a dash board & the camera

ill keep U up-dated !!

Nice build, this one is going to be awesome!

Are you going to keep the transparent doors like the 1:1?

Can't wait to see it finished!

Yes sir! The doors will be left unpainted to give the look of the plexi doors in the 1:1. It will also be good because then you can see out when the camera pans over there, plus I don't have to build a door panel!

Looks like a fun little rig, I wasn't a fan of that body in the past, but I have a feeling this one is gonna turn out sweet.

Default big progress

once the main chassis was figured out.
the rest came together fairly fast !!
just tack welded for now.


plenty of room 4 the battery under the hood !


ended up cutting about half of the body off.


just barley enough room for the camera.


upper side panels & roof will be alum.


the start of the dash !


now,
on to the bumpers & a few other things.
more to come !!

Staring at the pics I have decided that the Flat Irons are just a little too short. I wanted to run the Mud Thrasher tires because they pretty closely resemble the Cooper Tires that Jake and Scott run on the Tracker. I just don't think they would fill the wheelwells the way I want. So.......

I just ordered up a set of 1.9 Rok Lox tires and threw on a set of black Axial Beadlocks for the time being. I will ditch the wheels later but I need to save up for what the real ones will cost me

The winch on the 1:1 is tucked up under the grill. It is actually pretty hard to see. I will probably put one in the same spot. See if you can see it in a picture, if not I will get one from Jake or Scott.

Edit:
I'm getting pics now!

If you have a 3Racing winch handy that is what it will be most likely. If you don't have one handy than let me know and I will see what I can do.

You can see how tight the bumper is to the car.
