How do u go from a the gear reduction unit to a transfer case

Where did u get that motor

And what kind of stuff do u look for in the scrap yard.

Edit: and I have been forgetting to put this up but i found that the spring from a seat belt retractor in a car works really good as leaf Springs cause it's softer then the stuff out of the lawnmower.

Just got this in the mail today. I think it will fit perfect under the hood

Is it ok to run a two speed to a transfer case?

Sweet man thanks a lot I just got mine in the mail today and they look like they will work. They are a little smaller then I was looking for but they scale to around 36" so they will look pretty good.

twissted · 10-15-2010, 10:15 AM

did u get them from ebay?

adamargue · 10-15-2010, 11:45 AM

No I got them form a guy on here he gave me 5 and some long shocks for this thing

toy4crawlin · 10-15-2010, 07:19 PM

Cool scaler ! I really like the motor inside the engine look.

What did you come up with on tires ?
Have you considered MOab's XL ?

I'm looking for a Good 6" tall tire, Any idea's

TXT's...don't come up very often....I looked for a set...for awhile. They're cool for Big Mog builds...and Big military stuff/Monster Trucks too.

I bet those wheels and tires cost a pretty penny !! They're sweet looking though.

I looked on RC4WD...and the Cheapest 4.0 Wheel...and those tires...would run right at $250 shipped !!!

ARON

I actually got a killer deal on the tires and wheels ( $110.00 shipped off Ebay) And I got the TXT axles from a local guy in our club for $100.00. So all in all I don't have a lot invested so far.

Yea you got a pretty good deal then !

I'd like to get a set of 4.0"s or maybe even some of the other oddball sized wheels/tires..like the 3.2"s or 3.8"s....I can't remember...but I do know that there were several different ones out over the past few years.

Anyways...I'd like to find a deal on some of those big Slinger tires...or even some of the big RokLox tires...and a Nice..SCALE looking set of ALuminum Beadlocks.

Twissted.....your builds are looking pretty killer !

Sweet man that black looks nice. Yah I have to start work on this soon hurley is already talking smack about his ji Joe jeep ha ha so I hope to start here pretty soon been gathering parts. Still need motors though.

caymin last · 02-12-2011, 02:17 PM

That's a nice Bronco body, mine is only 1/16th scale, I cut the rear roof off and made a pick-up.
Can't wait to see what yours looks like when it's complete.

Hope you don't mind if I post a pic of mine.

Here's a link to the build....VMG based Bronco Concept.
