Need more Ram!!

[Zukiiholic]

Bought a DeadBolt for a Parts rig and decided to use it instead..

Vanquish Links
Howler Battery Tray
Rear Tray from Yokomo13 off of Ebay.
Pro-Line Super Swampers TSL SX



My Old Dingo for Interior and Bead Lock Wheels from China. (about 1/2lb each)



Body Post had to be modified so they didn't come thru the windshield.



Made a spare tire mount

[Zukiiholic]

I want a Winch bumper.
Plastic Version.



In a Few Days, I'll have a ScalerFab Version

Driver A fits the interior but looks big.


Driver B looks Smallish..


70s Two-tone paint.

[Zukiiholic]

Stuffed all my Electronics up front.
Had to re adjust my body post a wee bit.


Is it Friday yet?
G-made 100mm shocks
Before Pro-line Scale shocks installed.. LOL..

[Zukiiholic]

Finished up the interior.
Modified the Dash to give it more of a Ram look and a Dash Pad..




I felt the china wheels were too heavy so I swap to Vanquish wheels with
BmachineRC wheel Widners



Paint matches my Old 75 PowerWagon..

[Zukiiholic]

Here is how it sits now..
Added some side Mirrors off of Ebay .






The body was masked off behind the headlights and taillights till I come up with
some sort of light buckets for lights..
I also added the Vanquish 8*degree high steer knuckles but it is throwing off
my front wheel off-set.

Truck looks good!

That is why I'm running Axial high-steer aluminum knuckles, with the VP I have to run front wheels way outset which kills the scaleness of it all. Those wheels are nice but too narrow, glad taht BMachineRC is making the widenres.

[SAL45]

Nice Job! Paint looks good!

[Prime]

Great looking truck you have there.

[Zukiiholic]

Looks like I'll be looking for the Axial Hi-Steer.
But...

Received my Awesome Front Bumper from ScalerFab
The fit and Finish is Perfect. Rock Hard paint and Nice welds..

I had them make it a bit Narrower and Deeper for the Pro-Line Ram Body and
make room for a front mounted winch..

[Zukiiholic]

Just to show How Awesome ScalerFab did on my Bumper.
I placed Blue tape where I might have to trim if the tires rub.
Don't think that will be an Issue unless I install bigger tires but keeping it scale..
Plenty of room when I want to put a Servo Winch behind the grill..



This bumper is built soo good, I bet I could take a tree out before I could
damage my grill.
Weighs in at 194 Grams / 6.84 Ounces.

[Zukiiholic]

To get my Width back in order.
Out went the Vanquish 8* Knuckles and in with Axial Adjustable Chubs and STRC Steering knuckles.



Just to check scale width, i had a set of RC4WD 1.5 wheels and Mud Slingers
hanging around.



It got me thinking the PitBull Rock Beasts are just a bit too wide for scale.
I think I'll stick with the Vanquish 1.9s but find a more scale 4.25 tire..
Suggestions?

Not that I'm trying to chase down That Scale White PowerWagon. ;)
Don't think I'll ever be able to put that many miles on mine.
Never drove my 1:1 that much anyways..
8mpg, ya didn't drive it that much.. LOL..

[Zukiiholic]

stuck my truck on the scales and found out it weighs 7.6 lbs.
Really?
Pretty front heavy too..
Soo... made up a battery mount for the rear just to balance it out..
Swapping out to Deans connectors is next on my list..



Now it has a pretty good 50/50 weight balance..
maybe my front bumper is too heavy? 194 grams..?

...OK ...but don't expect me to buy it for you too. Lol

Robot & Washing Machine Action Figure Robot Chicken Jazwares

sooo... let's see it on 'dat Ram !? Lol

[Zukiiholic]

Due to some test running today, don't think I can afford to add anymore top weight to it..
The Ram played a mean game of roll-over during sidehilling..
So unless I can fit them under the rig, guess they'll need to find another ride.. LOL..

[Zukiiholic]

A small trip to the Beach..






Need sand tires and more speed..

[slantin_77]

That looks awesome! I'm glad one of the first things to click on here was of the Pro-Line Ram body. I just finished mine as well...just gotta get taller body posts. Looks great man!

Thanks, I didn't notice how short the front post were since I modified them to
fit more forward and not stick thru the window..
I always wanted my 1:1 to be a Monster Truck.
Soo..

I think this is gonna be my next mod already.
