| Anyone use their Wheely King, and build a crawler on the Proline AX-10 tuber?
I know its for the Axial AX-10 Scorpion, I was wondering if anyone used their Wheely King parts to complete the Proline AX-10 Tuber? Thanks |

I bought the Pro-Line Tuber Chassis for the AX-10 and used it on my Wheely King Crawler build. I just made some body panels on it, then drilled some holes to mount it like any other body. |

I made a custom chassis out of a sheet of Lexan (Home Depot!). Its just a simple Twin vertical plate design with a cutting board skid plate. I'll take some pictures without the Tuber Chassis on it, and post em up later.

The Lexan makes a great chassis. It's super durable and I can still see everything when I need to work on it. I cut the stock Wheely King Lower links to use as braces between the chassis sides. I cut out the "floor" in the cab area of the tuber chassis so I could plug in the battery. I used a piece of aluminum sheet underneath the "hood" to give some strength at the body mount. The body panels on the tuber chassis are just clear plastic painted sliver. |
