|  My Comp. Ready Jeep... pics
i just had to do it while seein BOWTIE's and his nephews nylints, it isnt dove tailed yet but sure does it climb good. i used bolts and nuts instead of that plastic rod to hook the axles to the chassis and it took all of the axle swaying and axle wrapping out of it.. tell me what you all think of it, Quade.. . oh and its gettin a new paint job soon, anyone got seggestions on colors???? The pics are from wheelin today after school on my ''Boulder"" http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/biggz_...e2.jpg&.src=ph Last edited by Rocker; 01-11-2006 at 07:34 PM. |

yeah, but i superglued bb's to the other side fer weight on the tires instead of puttin them in the tires... so the tires will still be soft and grip the rocks good, works good for me, im thinkin of painting it red and black, black body with red stripes, and red roll cage, and i might even paint the washers red

Thanks, i was bored and wanted to make a metal cage, but i dont have a welder (that works) to do it so i just thought i would try and "weld" plastic, lol i got to sand it down and stuff before i paint it though... and now i got to buy a soldering gun cuz i have a lil 1:64 Radio Shack Zip Zap monster truck and Shaun from here in RCC told me how to cut it to make it flex, it flexes goood but i pulled a wire off of the curcuit board and now i cant try it out, lol

Nice pics, looks like it has awesome flex. Paint wise I wold go with primer colors not anything fancy or shiny. Cause with primer if you scratch it you can just touch it up and go on but if you mess up a super nice paint job then u have to put your truck out of commision while you repaint it and thats no fun. Just remember chrome and shiny paint dont make a rig climb or flex any better, nice paint jobs are for models and shelf queens.  |

yeah, maybe later when i get the time, i just painted it tonight, i made the body black, and my roll cage and bead locks a tan color, and i painted the washers black. i dusted the black body with the tan so it looks dirty, and it wont show scratches as bad cuz i used the tan color as a primer, i think it will look good in the mornin when its all dried, ill get some more pics of it on my big climbin rock tomarrow, yeah that tread pattern works good for me, Quade |
