| Project: Rock Ready XJ I sold my scaler a few years back and have been itching to build another. Off the the for sale section i went and missed every scx10 chassis posted , till a few weeks ago. Did some horse trading and got a new set of 1.9 satin axial rims and scored a set of 5 new 1.9 Rip Saw's from the for sale. Went to Ebay and got a Honcho bumper , sliders , shocks and Traxxas Revo link's . Picked up a Proline XJ body at the Omaha Hobby Plex...well enough of rambling on here is the look i am going for Last edited by DeweyCJ5; 03-04-2012 at 08:44 AM. |

went over to Psychomonkey's tonight and he laid down some paint he made me promise to wait till tomorrow to mount it and add the rack and lights, because i always scratch the paint 5 min's after i leave his house |

| Re: Project: Rock Ready XJ Maybe look on RPP or similar for some logo decals. They are pretty cheap money and you get plenty for what you need. I have oredered a few sets from them. I think a nice touch would be to paint your suspension links red as well. That is a big trademark for Skyjacker. RPP Hobby | Radio Controlled Cars, Trucks, Boats, Helis, Planes, Plastic Models |
