Default 1 ton bronco

I bought this as a rtr last year & started the upgrades right away.
This is how it looked about a couple weeks after I got it & how it sits now (with top quality shit).

I had one once. It was a 66'. But it was soooooooooo rusted. I sold it the. Bought and built a TJ. It might be cheaper to buy one of the new 'retro' broncos than it would be to restore o e properly. Can't remember the company name that does those off hand, but they are bad to the bone!

Will have to check that out. Don't know how many times I tore it apart. One more time to finish the chassis.
Had a hell of a time programming the 4pl. Finally got it last night including the dig, with the ax10 vp trans case & hurtz dig. Still having a steering servo issue. Sometimes it has to be rolling to turn, it has a external cc bec, mmp, & pro4 with RRP gears.

What servo are you running? What kind of surface are you driving on when you experience the servo failure?

I'm running the hitec waterproof blue servo, powered at 7.4v from its own lipo and it still won't turn stood still on carpet, but out on the rocks it's fine.

I recon the extra tread width a 2.2 gives over 1.9 is enough to hold things up a little too.

I never said it was cheap. Just awesome...
Do you know how much dynacorn will be selling them for? Will they include or offer the top/front clip/etc?
