Little update. Trimmed the newbright interior. Got the top and sides smoothed out (almost ready for paint)Did a bunch of work on the bed but I didn't like it so I'm scraping that one and starting over.   any thoughts on weather or not to attach the top permanently to the body?

| Re: New bright JK build rattletrap replica I would attach the top, it will make the body a lot stronger. Nice work!  |

Thank you! Not trying to take focus away from your build, but yes those are the axial poison spyder fenders. They look way better than the stock new bright fenders. Also I think you should run the top. Will not only look good but like AJ said it will be stronger

For the wheels I might just have some beadlocks made that look spot on and I'll just use stock axial wheels.

Got the rear fenders on last night. I'm gonna need some wide axles for this build. Anyone have any ideas on which route to go on axles? Thinkin vanquish curry scx10 axles with portals but I need this to be like 12" total width outside tire to tire
