| 1/16 Traxxas Summit??
hey guys i dont know if yall noticed but the e-revo and the summit are identical except for the body, lights, trans, and tires, and traxxas has a 1/16 e-revo which is identical to the 1/10 but smaller. and i was curious, has anyone tried making a 1/16 summit off the 1/16 e-revo chassis and stuff? all you need is maybe a custom made body and some wheels, maybe the proline beadlocks with the red ring and black wheels, you could paint them silver and drill a few holes around the rim, and use some big joe all terrain tires, it would be really cool if someone did that! but i dont got the money so lol heres the stuff i bet you could use to make it: tires - Body - a cut down summit body wheels - well that would be cool IMO, just sharing some of my ideas lol |

I think a different tranny makes a pretty big difference between the trucks? Doesn't the Summit have locking diffs that the Revo doesn't have too?

Wow...Big Joes are 40 series...and Epics are 2.2...Something just doesn't line up here. That tire is almost as wide as the truck... and cut down summit body? Dude, do you not understand the scale of a summit? They are HUGE. A mini Revo is not huge... |

You'll have like what, 4 lugs left on the tire after cutting them down to size?
