UMG10 Build
 

I haven't had any axial in a couple years but decided to give the umg a try.

First thing I did while building the kit was to flip the trans. I had to make front brackets and trim the RX box a bit. I'm going to print a new set of sliders or cut the box off and use an axial RX box I have from my wraith parts.

I used a HH 27t and a 1080 ESC.

This is probably my favorite kit I have built. It has just about everything you need except accessories and a couple of upgrade for the 1 piece axles. It's nice not to have to make an interior from scratch. Also the bed is fantastic.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9354546f22.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d61eb9cc5a.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...56f5b8b517.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1e37aea9ae.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0d8732bf84.jpg

I decided to go a little bit different color than typically seen on a unimog but I like it. My Tonka truck. It looks so much like a tow truck I have thought about adding a boom.

I printed a stack and screwed it to the bed.

All ready for the maiden voyage.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c5a1f46c78.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...075ab975d5.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...61fae54312.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5c7b25ba63.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f4fe062f6b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...94cf8a234c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...323e461c88.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f30511e77e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...8fdd8fcdc5.jpg

Took it for a little spin in the back yard. Works fantastic.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b6a62c06a3.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f6d048580e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f9c8133e79.jpg

Printed some inner fenders. Just need to paint them up and get them mounted.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...06fdf9bab5.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...cacebf8e17.jpg

Re: UMG10 Build
 

I built one a while ago - probably the best equipped kit I've built from Axial.

Re: UMG10 Build
 

Lookin' great, mgputer!

Lovin' these UMG10 builds... "thumbsup"

The exhaust stack is a killer touch!

Re: UMG10 Build
 

Nice man! I really need to take mine out for a drive. I haven't even driven it yet! LOL. Are those inner fenders the same ones that the cherokee uses or did someone make a file specifically for the UMG?

Re: UMG10 Build
 

Thanks. Those are the Cherokee ones. I'm going to have to trim the front because of the body mount system and it's just a hair wide on the rear.

Re: UMG10 Build
 

Why flip the transmission?

Re: UMG10 Build
 

Moves the weight forward. I'm a believer in adjusting the weight before adding weight.

Added a few accessories. Have a few more printing.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...986ae33cc1.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ad40982b97.jpg

Changed the tires. Really like the stock ones but I like these too.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...24f69d8908.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0169e1e5cf.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...eb5685385a.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a8c91cecc8.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...87e82d8fdb.jpg

Decided to change to a 12" wheel base. I modified the bed a little and put a set of high clearance rear links. Looks almost stock. Just need to do the rear drive shaft. With the trans flipped and the longer wheel base it should crawl fantastic.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0ff73163e1.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1fd983fa21.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c9d9c4527c.jpg
