Hope this help.

OK. Designed and printed my own rear body post. Now I will be designing the front...

It's been a while since the last update. But not much happened.

A few adjustments on the shock, led light all around from mytrickrc.com , interior added(proline).

And about 5-6hours of run time.



Will post some better pics soon!

So after a couple of ride, some changes need to be done.
1- I need new shock, after two rebuild with green slime, they still leak. So I will throw some proline instead.
2- the front bumper grind everywhere! This was a front bumper of a sxc10-1 and it stick out too much in front of the Jeep. So I'll go with a rc4wd front bumper who is supposed to be smaller!
I'll keep you update.

Today, I've received my parts from great hobbies.com so I'll maybe able to run my Jeep this weekend.



As for now , I just got the time to swap the front bumper but I can all ready tell a improvement in front clearance and angle



I'll try to change my shock tonight or tomorrow and I also bought 50wgrade oil to try saving my original shock. If they still leaks I'll stick with the proline.

More update to come.

Great build. I like the body mount setup you have. I might have to borrow the idea for my build. Btw Montreal is a great city. When I was there everyone was very friendly and nice. F1 race will be there in a few weeks. Wish I was able to go.

Yep Montréal is one of the best city to visit or live. People are so friendly here. Like you said, f1 weekend is THE time of the year to be here! That's in 3 week from now. Thanks for your comments, I appreciate it!
