Needed another body for an extra chassis I had and got this one. It came as the whole RC - battery and controller. My 6year old wanted the wheels to go on the Nylint so I narrowed them and modified them to mount.

Wired up stock lights and also added more to the front and rock lights battery packs in the tool box.

WKCrawler · 03-02-2007, 09:17 AM

cabsover78 · 03-02-2007, 07:21 PM

taylor smith · 03-02-2007, 07:40 PM

like the body but not to wild about the tires. chrome dont get ya home. good idea though

Ramza · 03-02-2007, 11:09 PM

Straight up bling, yo.

Heh. Seriously though, nice work, the wheels look a little small, but eh, It's not my rig.

hotrodzach · 03-03-2007, 08:54 AM

that looks awesome! are those big joe tires of some kind or just an imitation?

these are the 40 series big joes, looks like the exact same tread pattern, but yours are much lower profile

YA.....I would rather have some other wheels and tires but my son loved these because they have the Ford emblem and lots of chrome.

They are modified New Bright wheels/tires and are only 1/8" shorter that the Nylints.

What wheels and tires can I get that are slightly taller than the Nylints and do not cost lots of $$$$$$

hotrodzach · 03-03-2007, 10:39 AM

there basically isn't any. moab xl's or jumbo kongs are the only ones i can think of off the top of my head, and they aren't cheap

outlawjeep · 04-09-2007, 09:18 AM

Nice! any pics of the underside w/ the lights?

Cube · 04-14-2007, 06:33 AM

Looks good. I like the newer body style.

I have the older body style on mine.

Old pic I have since brought the wheel base back to normal and then trimmed the wheel wells to work with the flex of the axles.

Moabs aren't, Moab XLs are.
