Kinda reminds me of a friend's Bronco. I believe it's siting on 39" BFG's in the is pic. |

for a Ford, it looks nice! i could see some screen door mesh being used for scale nets where the doors would be. i might have to get a wraith to mod now.... |

First, awesome body! Second, this isn't the first video I have seen showing the wraith skipping/sliding in the dirt. These things seem to get any traction in the dirt. Is it a weight issue or tire selection?

Fantastic rig!! I've been wondering when someone was going to put an early Bronco on a Wraith. I've been taking measurements and have been trying to decide between the HPI, Tamiya, or Dynamic Concepts bodies. It seems you just confirmed what my suspicions were...looks like the Tamiya body is the way to go. And with those tires, it really pulls off a King of the Hammers look. Too bad they're not grippier, though. |

So I've been struggling with tires. I've spent a fair bit of cash on other things as of late so I'm trying to recycle a few parts here and there. What you see here are 1.9 IROK's on 1.9 steelies. They're close to the size of the Mil-Specs that I had on there, but I dunno. I took it out for a quick drive in the driveway and it still seems quite capable. Thoughts? | |

Look wise, def the mil spec. But it looks like the 1.9 will aid you in all terrain and 4wheel drive situations
