I just sent him a message. One of my buddies said he saw a 1:16 version at a wallmart I guess.

too. You should send it to me.

Ha ha I don't know if that will happen I don't know if I have a box big enough to ship it now ha ha

I almost have all the windows cut out (sence they where all blacked out). And I just ordered 2 window nets from team3six.

I'm hopefully going over to muddauber's this weekend and we may be able to do a little something to this thing.
Thanks for looking
Adam

Ok, thanks for checking. guess i'll start checking the side of the street

adamargue · 09-28-2010, 11:29 AM

Ha ha that's where u find all the good stuff though is at garage sales and stuff

twissted · 09-28-2010, 01:01 PM

great body should be a lot of fun to build. I have a build that is on hold untill snow falls. you should take a look. Has some work that might help u with your build. It's in the large scale under Big block tj. I shure wish that someone built scale dana 60 axles in 1/8 scale. these big scale are a lot of fun to build and easer to build in a lot of ways. but parts are hard to find.

. I show how to jump some of these hoops that you will face.

Yah I know what ur saying I think I am going to go for a scale terraflex axle. Do u have a link for ur build I'd like to see I need all the help I can get

BiG_DaWgZ · 09-28-2010, 01:21 PM

After looking at my pics...up above...I've got a correction to make.

Those axles shown...were Axial Axles....with the Nylint Adapters on them.

I took those pics for a guy that I deal with in Australia....and he bought those adapters from me...for one of his projects.

I currently...have the same adapters...mounted up on brand new Wheely King Axles...and that is what I'm planning on using for my 1/6th Scale...Jeep Gladiator build. (If I ever get the time to get started on it !!)

Anyways....I just didn't want any confusion....about what was actually being shown.

Thanks
AROn

RC4WD makes them.

I'm not sure but these look very similar to mine.

I don't have much CLOD...or TXT experience...so...if clod/txt's have 12mm hexes...these adapters should work for you

Good luck buddy

I do have a template made of cardboard. here is what I have planed so far.

I thought that a jeep hood would make a good hood scoop! also added a dog the the passenger seat for a dded touch. the bumper will be a lot like the one I'm building for my jeep gladiator. Ill show pics of it as well. I built it to be different and so u will see that it has a bobed bed. it is large scale as well. I find that these are much more fun to build and that the winches and other parts are more scale on these builds.

twissted · 10-01-2010, 03:07 PM

The bumper i'm using is also the servo mount for the steering.

twissted · 10-01-2010, 03:13 PM

Chopping bodies or if it is something that your thinking about but looking at the bronco that you have. I think i would give it a shot. On the back end is a good start. The end corners. I like this body. I think I will look for one and try it. good luck with your build and Ill be watching.

adamargue · 10-01-2010, 03:38 PM

That looks awsome man I can only hope mine turns out half as good

. What is the track width in that

twissted · 10-01-2010, 03:59 PM

Which one the black one or the green one?
