Default Ultimate HONCHO... Now gone JK

So here is my take on a honcho. Went with the Ultimate adventure JK paint scheme. Just a roller right now. Will be done soon. Trying to find someone who can make the orange ultimate adventure decals ?











And the inspiration

Yes all lights will be hooked up. I just need to finish a few things up first.

I got the stone guards painted and on

I like it. Doesn't look like a shelf queen to me. I really like the beadlock rings and the whole look of the truck. The Tacoma grill stickers will really make the truck look even better. Any plans for a winch?

Beadlock rings are from Todd at bartos chassis. They are just on the axial 1.9 8 hole wheels.

As for the electronics I have my stock slash motor and ESC that will be used in this. I picked up a 9 tooth pinion for it so hopefully it will be ok. This will see a lot of snow wheeling as well as some muddy trails. So I am hoping the wheel speed will help clean the tires out. I also have a Hitech 645 steering servo for it. Still a few things to button up


Also I forgot to mention that the truck is painted on the outside. It was done white primer and then the O.D Green. It was then painted on the inside with a gray primer. So when it scratches it will look like it is down to the primer

As for a winch yes it will be getting a 3racing warn

Truck is looking good.

I like how you did the paint. That will be cool with some rock rash on it. Well...... when it gets off the shelf .
