that would be pretty sweet if you loose those rims and get some big meats for it. maybe some cool bumpers to.

You would have to go with the larger wheel/tire setup. A 2.2 on a 1/6 rig only works out to be a 13" rim.

I think it would be an awsome build. Can't wait to see it.

Is this a build thread?

Quoted from the Main Large Scale rigs page:

''FYI this is a tech forum just like Clods and TLTs so if your thread is moved it is because of a lack of "tech." Posting a picture of your body and saying you have plans for it is not tech and it will be moved to chit chat.''


Body is looking great though never seen that big f-350!
A build up would be great with this body!

2.2s would look good. Im building a Ranger and its really a 7.5/1 not 6/1 like the box reads. whats the wheelbase on that body? and the width? what type of axles u runin? i just picked up some ax10 axles that are going to be perfect. I have moabs right now but i plan on running those new rock krawlers from RC4WD. They scale out to be 41s by 15s. and the wheels scale out to be just over 16s. I also have a true 1/6er that has moab xls on it that scale out to be 42s so its important to figure out exatly what the true scale is before stating the project.

Its really more about looks than dimensions.

True enough. When you think about it, 2.2 rims on a 1/10 scale rig is a 22" wheel, when most guys are running 15-16" on their 1:1, maybe up to an 18" tops. That's for true trail rigs of course... Show trucks run all kinds of crazy wheel sizes.
