Thank you, I plan to get the hand bros streering kit, and building a full interior with roll cage. I have a second body that I will cut up to take the top off. Then I need to make a new front bumper for both the axial and my TJ.

i think those types of bumpers look the best on jeeps and the ones that are a stamped steel lower with a mini stinger"thumbsup"

I might have a pre-built TJ cage done you would just have to weld up.
Definitely have some Anarchy long arm kits but welding required..
Might even have a TJ stinger kit layin around.

Ghack, I hate that bumper. Everyone buys them because they are cheap. Have a local fab shop build you something better and more unique.

The SCX looks good though, I want a JK to go with my XJ SCX.

I appreciate the criticism, but I don't plan on buying one. I'm building it myself so it will be like that not exactly the one pictured.

"thumbsup"definately gettin a ruby body now! they look great with the 2.2s! nice start"thumbsup"

ok, I havn't made much progress on the scale goodies yet, but I did clean things up a bit. I went and replaced the the multi colored links with some axial high clearance ones and four linked the rear with a tcs boomerang mount. Oh I also ditched the radio and through in a 2.4 gig futaba setup so I can put a dig in at some point.

So I guess the question is which will cost more when you are done?
