Hey Smoke, put some air in those tires. I see it sitting on a flat surface and they look flat. How much does that rig weigh? Very nice color combo.

30 LBS! I think you might want to weigh your rig.. 30 lbs is a lot. a full size traxxas summit is a beast and it's only 11 lbs. So I think 30 lbs may be a little to high of a guess.

Aight well try again let me see

TINY your right my friend 10.5 lbs the jeep rubicon weights with battery

rims and tires are from proline dont know the name my buddy sold them to me from his wraith... also stock suspension for now without the stoppers in the shocks...

hey people got a roof rack that would fit perfect on a wraith not a jeep disappointed.... does anyone have any suggestions for a sick roof rack...

Hit up TL697, here on the forum. I just got a roof rack from him for my Rubicon, and it looks great. He also made my hitch.

The tires are 2.2 PL Flat Irons, not sure on the wheels. They look huge on the JK.

Saving up for the wider axles so it take away from the HUGE look... There 200 dollar rims and tires for 50 bucks i can not complain you know and it looks alot better then stock...
Video Finally Working Correct... Jeep Rubicon Mudding - YouTube

I wish more people would comment love to get some ideas or just hear some input... Like i said on one of my post i am going this weekend on a old indian trail with some go pros... let me know i want to start making some killer video but need your guys opinions

Finally got a brushed motor and esc for the jeep... Took the vxl powered out so I can build my new Kreation its a HPI Rs4 body carbon fiber that I am going to but the vxl on...


Hitting the homemade track with the Jeep let me know how it is...

Jeep Off Roading - YouTube

The stock mount keep pulling out and the whole axle housing and servo would pitch forward hitting the servo arm on the frame rail giving me no front suspension... so finally got this nice little peice... I know only one would fit the front.... But they come in 2s I guess a back up... But still a nice little upgrade.... nice machine work and good finish...

thanks for editing my thread thx 138 looks alot cleaner... first off i canceled my order on the 103mm gmade shocks... I was looking at the shocks with the inner springs so it can look like really shocks but my stock shocks go to 95mm so whats the point of going to a 100mm inside spring shock...

I just watched your second video, your Jeep is very noisy as compared to all three of my SCX10's. When mine sounded like that my pinion to spur mesh was way off. Not trying to be critical, just helpful.
