Default Spider-Hulk is Alive (pics)

Well i have for the most part finished my truck. I made a custom locked out diff with the right mountings for the maxx shafts so no slipping! I also made custom plates for adjustablity and changed the steering(not finished yet). It will climb up 14.5 inches virtical walls and any thing else it runs into. I do need bigger tires. I was having some problems hanging up on my axles. Let me know what you think and if there are any more suggestion. The wheel base is 14.25inche and the ride height is currently at 5.25. I know it is alittle higher than most at least i think but i havent had any problems with flipping yet at least.





















i will post some pics of the wall in alittle while

Enjoy

Nice job!

You locked out your savage axles the same way I did..........of course, the axles are all I have done on mine so far...... :(

With a truck that wide, have you thought about extending the wheelbase at all (16"-17")? Might make it a lil' more capable overall.......ya know, incase you need to climb over something more then 14.5" (man, thats big...).

Good rig.

i have thought about it but wouldnt i just high center easier. or can you just hit stuff at an angle i climb right up. I dont know so you input is very helpful. Here is the wall and a step i like also.

well if you ever step up to a real sized tire

it would be the same height, just longer WB...it all works out...i wouldn't do it with the little tires though
