Man I love this build! I have all the extra parts needed to build one just need to make a chassis. Also if you get a chance next time you snap some pics could I see one of the top of the axle where the leafs mount? Ohh and what leaf springs are those? Thanks for the inspiration.

Thanks for the comments
the springs are proto type springs from bartos chassis. I dont think he is still making them.. I will snap some pics of the spring perches when I get them cut out I need to make some U bolts up but have been putting it off.

Sloppy, What all is needed to run the clod wheels with the single dually tire on the WK axle? Is it just simply narrowing the clod wheel or am I missing a step?

He bought them from me...they are imex clod dually tires narrowed to singles. They are pretty rare to find but there are a couple circulating around.

BTW, engine is turning out killer with those details

No you got it.. Clod wheel is a 12mm hex bolt right up

reason why i was asking is because i have a wheely king that has a 12turn brushless in it and i want tires like that.. cause mine is also a mud king the brushless is the best in the mud and snow... it will go as fast as 30mph and in the mud it flings the mud ... thanks

well got all the lift blocks cut today and the axles are kinda mounted I wanted to do U-bolts but this just worked out allot easier..


I may trim about a 1/4" off the blocks to lower it down a little bit.. as it sits now..
