Yeah they are venom 2.2's. They mount on axial wheels just fine. They are not the tallest tire but work well in fresh powder snow. I run my 1.9's everywhere else.

i really like the body. I'm going to get the 1992 jeep cherokee body though. Then other stuff added to that.

Nice rig dude!

It works really well. I run it with a Losi receiver and controller. It does not glitch at all and is super smooth. I was only going to run it for a short time but I have found no need to change it. It works perfect for what I do. And the wheel speed is cool when wanted

I actually did this mod on one of my Honcho's and it works great, they don't hang up and they do give the truck a pick-up look.
Mine are made from .030 styrene sheet.

Thanks. I have a blast with this thing. I thought about tinted windows but not sure if it would look good.

I just need my RC4WD Boggers to come in already

It has plenty of power. It will pull a wheelie from a dead stop. The wheel speed is killer.

Dude I want to go bad. Long arms are getting done while I am down in Eugene for Christmas. It is killing me having all the parts and not on the jeep.

Here are some updates on the crawler. Just rebuilt and packed my axles with waterproof marine grease. Made them way heavier so hope that helps bring the COG down a little. Picked up some new bumpers and started hacking them up until they fit. Not sure if I like the front to much. Also have been waiting on my RC4WD Boggers to get here. And getting ready for a scale comp coming up




Rear bumper fits nice and tight

The orange rims are killer. Love them with the Jeep body.

Well the weather has been extra crappy the last few days. So a quick trip to the dollar store in search of something to make wheel wells out of. Found the perfect container to cut up. Have to go back and get one more for the rears but the fronts are done. Got another body on the way also. This one has seen better days

Tire picture above does it go Boggers, Two-Faces, Rok-loc's, and Iron?

Umm...I thought the Rok-Loc were suppose to be the tallest 1.9, I guess I need to keep up with the new tires out there

Jeep looks great with the Boggers

yes thats the correct order, but the new boggers and Baja claw TTC's are the tallest 1.9's out there now thanks to the great people at RC4WD!

id almost bet Pro-Line has something brewing in the 4.75 range too or maybe im just hopeful
