Default Rubicon build

I just wanted to introduce myself, i'm still a Noob at this stuff and here's my rigs.

This is my Honcho AX10


My other AX10


And this one is my Rubicon that I will be spending most my focus, time and attention to.


Plans are to create something in the middle of scale and crawler. I want to mostly do trails but still crawl decent.

It's currently running Novak Goat 3, Fifty Five, Savox 1258tg, SPektrum and recently did LED's into the bumpers.

List of stuff on the brain:

Upgrade shocks/springs

Change out any colored pieces to black or gunmetal

Possibly do Summit 2 speed transmission

More lights

Wheel weights

Change out ball ends to Traxxas metal balls

Fix body rattles with foam inserts.

Custom skid plates

Winch

What are you looking for in a shock upgrade on your JK? I am looking to bump mine up and need some ideas

I bought 2 sets of shocks to try out. For a scale look I went with RC4WD king shocks, they looked great and actually had good performance too. I also have a set of Proline Powerstroke Scaler shocks that I just threw on today. I'll post a thread comparing the two later in the week when I get to test them out

My buddy just installed Gmade Zeros 94mm and they're pretty sick so i purchased the same ones in silver.

Amainhobbies had the 94's on sale for like $37 shipped i believe.

Also an update: i am going through with the summit two speed trans mod since i won an auction on ebay.
