Looking great Jerry, the headrest and light mounts are the little things that really make it all count. The camera still fits right?

Brian, the dash in there will be the base of the full dash. I am going to try and replicate the Tracker dash as much as I can. As far as lights go, I may have some detachable lights that I use for night running but not for regular scale use. When I go trail running at night I want to be able to SEE!

The rig/cage work looks great......maybe we will get to see it a Crawlapalooza while you and rockshow are playing by or in the pool......

Maybe this will motivate him to finally build his Sami scaler

It will definitely be in Disney, Friday night scale run

As for Rockshow (and Uroplatus) I am just worried because I don't think there is a Denny's anywhere near Disney

All the new parts came in today! New RC4WD 1.9 Rok Lox (Scott and Jake will have to get over the tread pattern) look great and compound feels good. Mounted them up on some Flat Black Axial 1.9 beadlocks for the time being as well. Then made a call and to check the DMG was open and headed over there!

We got the last details lined out and Jerry is going to get to work finishing up everything. Should be done and in paint by this weekend! AWESOME!

I think the new tires give a great stance. I also took all the preload out of the shocks to lower it down. The Tracker is LOW so I need this one to hug the wheel wells.

The camera still fits perfectly. Jerry welded a tube right into the chassis to hold the mount. It sits right where I had it before.

Jerry and I were discussing the rear end tonight and decided to add one more tube to the rear that will allow us to eliminate the stock shock towers. The bar will run on the other side of the shock but retain the same shock position.




I will have to dig up the picture of how Jake and Scott had their spare in California for the KOH but it is similar to this. Fits pretty well if I say so myself.

Just a quick photohack of what the color will kind of look like.

No sticker for a grill in this rig. Jerry and I came up with the idea to do a real grill an I decided to get the most detail I would have it laser cut. So I made the call last night to make sure I could have it done soon.

Got it drawn up tonight, just have to put the extra around the outside so I have some area to attach it to the inside of the body.

Wrong tires and the real one is NOT pink.


Looks good, I will look for the pic of how the tire was mounted at KOH.
