yeah, it is always a good ideal to wheel it after each mod, so you can know what each mod did to the performance. -Dalton |

| HELLO I took a little in advance and I have to finish the cut of my tires, I have to cut them with the manner of ( TWISTED ) and I am proud. These tires now appear more aggressive to me and their walk on the rock approaches.[IMG]http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/ [/IMG] On the other photograph, I have to place my scorpion upright without any pressure and I believe that this cut ( TWISTED ) softened even more and it is so much better.

yes TWISTED, these tires come from a BUBBA and the rubber was very very soft, same before the cut and now they are it more. THANK Last edited by texx; 10-03-2006 at 12:12 PM. |

| Hello First of all, the tires broad (bubba) are for the SCORPION and I will make large changes on my JEEP , It will be needed that I is shorter chocks and will cut the frame of approximately an inch and will smash the floor, and to install doors to hide the frame which will go to the height of the door I know, the articulation of less will be carried but I make test it It will surely be necessary that I cut the turn of the wings so that the tires travel well, the front grid will have to be to modify, [IMG]http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/ [/IMG] ..Here 4 photographs, on these photographs, the frame and the floor are not yet to cut, the shocks are to remove, that gives us an outline of the result .. I am crazy !!! http://www.putfile.com/blackfly1900/images/24700[/URL] Last edited by texx; 01-09-2009 at 07:13 PM. |

| HELLO ... I have to work this crawler and I was afraid to break it :-P The shocks are not to install (future purchase) and there remain the doors/dash/seat/putty/sanding/painting/to cut the wings/etc… I hope that it will raise the foot a little bit … THANK YOU Last edited by texx; 10-03-2006 at 12:07 PM. |
