Default Gladiator crawling and tippin (video)
Almost dunked the jeep/gladiator again. Luckily my buddy rushed over before it fell in the pond

You just about hit every single pond in that yard!

That Gladiator body looks really good on that chassis. A+

Speaking of o-rings, anyone notice the hot/cold effect? I was playin when it was 40 outside and the front would slip alot. During the summer, it hardly did that. It doesn't slip indoor either.

awesome video. Your Gladiator looks perfectly matched up with the Nylint chassis. I myself am working on a body swap (Grand Cherokee, WK) and I swear its not as easy as one might think. Check it out if you're interested. Its a new post in the 1:6 section.

Yeah it's not easy. I had to adjust the wheelbase 3x before getting it close enough. The tires still rub on the front bumper and rear-part of the fender flares. I trimmed as much as i could so it was still decent looking.

Upon viewing your thread (Grand Cherokee 1:6, i'm curious where you found that body? That looks totally SICK! I would love to have that body and start a 2nd 4-linker crawler.
