| Hummer Body
I have a 1/6th Hummer body going on my Nylint. It's a real Hummer, not the homosexual H2 . I'll put up some pics tomorrow. |

That's my plan. I'm gonna grab another crawler from walmart since I wanted another battery anyway, and use the mounting hardware from the new Jeep on the Hummer body. The Hummer also has lights that I can rig up if I want to.

if it were me, i would go for a more scale look and drop the body down lower.....but you would have to limit the flex....

It does look more scale when it's lower but it won't flex without hittin' the fenders. I could cut the fenders but I don't know how good it'll look.

i also have a hummer body on my nylint but i have a 1/10 on it not a 1/6 or 1/5 like you. I think that the 1/10th looks better becasue it makes the axle and wheel base long and bigger my is green and black i need to get some pics on here.

The spare on the bed was helping to balance the body for the pics. I will do some painting, might olive drab the whole thing for that HMMWV look. |
