Default Tube Bed Ford F250 Extended Cab

She started her life as a Trail Ready and little by little this is what I have. Here is the run down:

1.9 Proline FlatIrons on Axial chrome rims
3Racing dummy winch
Axial Esc
Axial Rx/Tx
Axial 27t motor
Hi-tech HS-645MG Ultra Torque Servo
Proline F250 body
5/16th steel tube bed
Misc scale accessories

and here is the finished project

If only they worked as well! The Rok Lox are a tad large. Might try the new rc4wd Dick Cepeks or super swampers what do u think they are both much smaller

The bed is 5/16th solid steel tubbing. And it is brazed together with Harris Saftey Silv 45 and a handheld Mapp gas torch.
