My New F-250 Crew Cab Flatbed Honcho

[Needboost]

I've posted pics before here of the Pro-Line F-250 Crew Cab I cut the box off and attached the stock Honcho back half to and it turned out well. I was super pleased to here Pro-Line had made a F-250 Honcho style cab so I went out and picked one up, but much to my disappointment it fit a stock truck but not mine, some how with the stock lower link still in place from my kit my wheel base grew. So I set out to make an other F-250 Crew Cab as the old one was getting really banged up, and here she is....

Like the color combo and the Honcho bed. Really sets it off. Looks like a beast.

Thanks I'm loving the Vanquish Light bar, can't wait to get out for a night trail run and see how well it works, I also installed the RC4WD two speed along with one of the new Tekin ROC 412 the 3100kv on 3S in 2nd gear she really hauls.....

Looks great! I have been eyeballing those light bars too. I was not sure how it would look on mine but it does look great on yours!

No I still had the stock ring and pinion so I had to still use set screws and forgot to tread lock them, just got out of the parking lot on to the sand and noticed I had only front wheel drive. I've since switched to the heavy duty ring and pinion and have a screw in pin no more problem....

The mirrors I got from RC4WD they are listed in with the parts for the Tamiya F-350 body, they are rubber replacements for the stock plastic ones they even fit the stock mirror inserts if you have them and they work great. I had a Tamiya F-350 Highlift truck and the first big roll out on the trail I lost a mirror, these ones I had one come off once and I can't the times I've rolled my truck or scraped against trees and rocks as long as you use good two way tape they stay put....

Where might someone find a honcho bed and rear cage like that? Or do you have to build them?

I used the stock Honcho back on mine as for the other truck its the hard plastic Tamiya Toyota Body or the RC4WD Trail Finder Body and a hand built cage....

Picked up some RC4WD Dick Cepek 1.9 Rims for my truck, I love the look but they are real pain to get the beads set even using RC4WD 1.9 Iroc's and I really want to run my Pit Bulls on these rims. Here's a picture with the new rims...

More Pics with the new wheels and the good tires!!!!!

You will have to narrow the complete Honcho cage to fit as it is wider then the Pro-Line F-250 body for the E-Revo, I wanted to do the same at first but gave up. We just need some one to make bed sides for the new F-250 cab or get Pro-Line to make us a two piece body like they used to have for the Jeep Truck...
