yeah I want to do a custom interior for it. the spacers came from the aluminum links kit I think, plus i had some in the spare parts bins..  you can buy them though.looks like the bigger ones might be 5x6mm and the smaller 4x6mm or 3x6mm. http://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/axa1417.htm http://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/axa1416.htm http://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/axa1415.htm they also have 1x6mm too. http://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/axa1413.htm             |

I'm curious about the spacers as well. I'm picking up the 11.4" w/b kit today and possibly a body and western bumpers. I'm pulling out my Spektrum receiver , tekin rs esc w17.5t sensored bl, stock servo, axles, lights, rc4wd steelies, and pit bull 2.2 rockbeasts off my wraith. Any suggestions on bodies?

Thanks I am pretty happy with the looks so far. The 2 door jk look great and fit the dingo wheelbase really well. The bumpers are the jk deluxe bumpers from dh fabrication. They rock. He has a thread under vendors scale accessories I believe.

On the wraith forum there is a guy who drilled his seats and used a mesh cloth to cover the center sections that he drilled. Good way to shed some weight.

I saw that. Might have to look into doing it. Right no I am not to concerned with weight on this rig. But that could change... DH fab is finishing up my rock rails, and I ordered a single dc2 from rc4wd. |

Rock rails should be here today, and I ordered a single dc2 to replace the axial beadlock spare.

Nice. I went the other direction with mine. I have everything mounted center mass as low as I could. Removed the spare and bed insert. It handles very well now. No more nose dives off bumps sidehills much nicer, and accelerates nicely.

I got my styrene sheets in, and the seats assembled. I have been busy with my unlimited rubi, but now that it's together, and I have some minor details left, I am going to start on this interior.

That thing is awesome! Almost too pretty. I've gotta pick something up to keep me from bashing on my honcho. Going to retune my motor and get rid of the excess speed. Adjust the timing to keep the torque and regear to a brisk walking pace. Then I'll pretty it up with an unlimited top.

Thanks guys. I am thinking about converting my honcho into a brute with swampers... that's about 2 projects down the line though... The. Claws seem to do pretty well here in co, and I love the look of them. Didn't get a change to take anything out today, but maybe next week I can cut out of work for a bit and get some pics of both rigs on the rocks.

Still need to do this interior. Just finished my 1.9 jk unlimited and almost done with the 2.2 unlimited build. Then I can focus on some styrene work. The brute build will be after that. Thinking about getting a wraith kit for fun, or if I can just get the axles, putting those under one of the unlimited's.... |
