Found some, stole it from a window seal, It worked, but I did not like the outcome. I like the way it looked on yours, but the colors dont match up very well and it doesnt look to fitting. Worth a try though. I might try it again sometime in the near future when I can get a better piece of rubber or something. Thanks though!

Colorofkris · 01-26-2011, 06:10 PM

Goin crawlin for the first time tomorrow with the rover body! Wish me luck! Ill try an get some pics

Took my rig rock crawling for the first time. no pics (sorry). It was a huuuuge fail, after moving the battery to the front the bumper rode to low, I had no ground clearnce due to the bumper. After attempting a few good lines, i gave up, took it home and took off the bumper. When i get the cord I need I will put the lights in the front of the body. Until then though the front bumper is gone, which look pretty good. After removing the bumper I took it to a huge sand pit which was alot of fun, I don thave any pics, only video, I shall see about posting some though! An i will try to get a pic of the truck with no front bumper soon

They are deff alot of fun to tinker and play with. I have been dying for one for a little over a year now and it was worth the wait!

Colorofkris · 01-31-2011, 07:58 PM

Reomoved the front bumper 2. Maybe a better shot tomorrow!

Colorofkris · 02-01-2011, 08:43 PM

Fixed my suspension finally! Body looks even now and really good! Also removed the front cage so that looks even better! Now just need that extension cord for the lights to put in the front of the body!!! Pics up soon. Lookin for more ideas on anything that could benifit! Let me know! Thanks for the support!

Colorofkris · 02-02-2011, 06:07 PM

Here is a comparison in suspension (front), the drop was horrible, finally fixed it an it looks good, only problem is I spilled some of the shock oil so one shock is running with half of what it originally had so i need to fill that back up. Next step is to try the new suspension fix out. Maybe over the weekend eh?

Oh made those bungie cords, and safely secured my tow ropes on the A- Frame bull bar on the front.

Also removed the Front bumper

Food that there are black bolts that come down on the suspension that change the ride height. So i screwed those down to left the front, the suspension is a little tight in the front but not all bad. , and thanks

Here is my fire extinguisher and my other ...thing.

the fire extinguisher is made from a red pen, a black piece of rubber, a shiny twist tie, and 2 legos (plus super glue).

Heres the other thing, made of a clear pen, a sticky note, and an axial sticker lol
