Those are nice tires. I have a set for my Xj, I switch between those and the ripsaws. You will have to do a bit of fender trimming for them.

Voila, she's ready. Pactra's Rally Green came out brighter than I thought but it's a perfect match to the RCC green |

as it says in the description, my CR-01 couldn't climb the first rock on a dry day, bad tires or weight distribution from Tamiya I suppose. and here's 2 minutes of SCX donuts Last edited by CJ318; 03-01-2012 at 07:03 PM. |

I dug a small mud pit today, hopefully I can spread them all along my rock trail in the backyard in the bare areas without shrubbery. I'm hoping for a win in the Super Shafty Bomb Proof transmission Giveaway ... the way I drive, I'm going to strip gears if I haven't already. When reversing it gets up to about half speed then I hear a grind from the trans and it won't get up to full speed. Zero grind going forward but my drivetrain slop has increased enough to notice too!

Thanks guys. My paint is kind of sloppy, I suck at masking apparently. my next Cherokee will be one color, that forest ranger teal color to be exact. I'm not planning lights but I'm definately going scale with it. Wicked Wolf RC roof rails and cargo box, a scale driver and dog, Interco Swampers and scale Jeep wheels, etc. I'm more into really waterproofing it. I want to be able to ford streams and bash in the mud. |

gixxer, part of my waterproofing is like you - with the airtight tires. I sealed mine up with CA glue and clear silicone and I cut down my foams, they flex around and grab rocks really good I think check the front tire in this pic |
