I merged your 2 threads together Speedicus Maximus, no need for 2 different threads on the same truck.

I'd lower the ride height, it looks too tall. Got any stats on it?

Moved to Small Scale.

I think it needs to be lowered and shortened it, those tires are too small for that much wheelbase and clearence.

Are those Savage shocks? If so they are bit overkill. Maxx shocks are better suited and that would make it easier to lower it a bit.

Great advice guys!I was thinking that about the shocks but they were all I had...I will lower it but is it only my tires that cause the problem?(too small)Or could I get a Maxx wheel adapter....

you could ad larger wheels with the maxximizer adapers.. but my guess is you already have issues with gearing it low enough to crawl, adding larger tires is only going to make that worse..
