Default Project F250

well stopped into the lhs the other day and noticed this body and didn,t get it ..as time went on and I kept looking at my old lids laying around i had to go back and get it ..plus i have a fondness for my fords haha..
body is a proline 2008 F250 super duty, in order for it to look right I had to extend the links ..all i did was make some out of other links setting around haha . seems to have worked out good for me as everything matches up and works no binding or strange noises coming from driveline ..was the dingo wheelbase before with a jeep xj body on it ..wheelbase now is almost 13" ..attached are some pics of before and after whats everyone think ?

the Jeep look

Before painted


after painted

Looks awesome!! I like the blue.

Just some advice, if the tires rub too much. Dingo flares will fit with a little trimming. Built the same body for my gf's first scaler, and with 1.9's it rubbed more than I liked.

not to jack, just showing you how they look

Nice build, always a fan of Ford's.
The new wheel and tires combo reminds me of the trucks where I grew up.
