It's 3 linked right now. But I'm not liking it.. I want it 4 linked but I don't like the bumpsteer. I'm worried that leaf spring will still have bumpsteer.so idk.

I had ordered the loops RC front and rear(2) arb style bumpers for the f350. I ordered the front a week before the rears and received the rears today 8/25. still waiting for the front the front says be here by the 27th? Anyways. I had ordered 2 rear bumpers thinking they would be alot more narrow than my bed and cutting them up to make 1 wide enough, turns out they are pretty wide.. I'll measure them tomorrow. The first 2 pics are of it centered on the bed, maybe 2mm shorter than the bed sides. Last 2 pics are of it flush on the right side, while showing how much shorter it is.

I’ll keep an eye out for it as I’m going to be building mine in stages so it may take a little longer to get it done but it should keep me interested.

When the loops rc bed comes in I will compare it to a stock bed

Got the rear bumper mounted up. Made a bumper bracket out of 0.005 aluminum and used 3x12 screws and nuts to space it out for now. Will make spacers out of some aluminum or brass tube. Fits pretty well. Here's some pics of it mounted and bracket

The loops rc cab and bed came in. I was wrong it is actually a quad cab body! Anyways the bed is the exact same dimensions as a stock bed. The only difference is the loops bed is about 1.25” deep, were the tamiya is about .5”

Quality is pretty good. The only cutting I will need to do is to remove the factory rear body mount on the cab as it is not going to work. Other than that it’s mostly just sanding.

Received my RC rock armor drop hitch today. Now gotta make my own receiver mount. Really want to make it as 1:1 as I can. Still haven't got my loops RC front arb bumper. Opened request on eBay and they messaged me saying it's at the post office and I went to check and wasn't there. Checked eBay app tracking today. Shows it was no delivery on the 11th and was return labeled 5 days ago. I had no way of knowing this. Already had to wait over a month. So now I'm trying to message loops RC and figure it out

Received a lil package from rpp today. Love the speed of shipping. 2days only. Got

Proline overland roof rack
Styrene (to build another better bed)
RC4WD 1.7 fuel mud gripper m/t 3.98" tires

I bought only a pair of the tires to see if I like the height. Probably gonna stretch them onto some 1.9 wheels. The tires that are on now are 4.7 tall. Not to sure if I like it

Overall happy with the roof rack. Now just hoping the vp rigid lightbar will fit on it

Tried a 1.9 wheel with these 1.7 tires. I don't know if I completely like the overall size. I guess I need to get another pair so it's sitting on all fours. Definitely needs a more solid foam

1 thing I found I don't like about these tires is they are really soft.is there anything I can do to make them alot stiffer?

I also might just get 1.9 tires that are no taller than 4.3

I agree. With the 1.7 tires it looks like the truck was lifted on stock tires.

I picked up 4.35” tires and 4.5” foams for mine but the tires are taking forever to ship

Since I got the drop hitch. I am looking around for scale receiver assembly. I found a dinky RC 3d printed hitch but on backorder, so my next thought is to build my own. Thinking about using abs and styrene to build it. I don't know if it will be strong enough to support a trailer
