Default Jeep Grand Cherokee 1:6

Greetings from Russia!

This is my new project – 1:6 scale Jeep Grand Cherokee. It is based on Axial Wraith axles and gear box.

Now it looks so:













Headlights, winch, new tires and other aftermarket will come soon.
Pictures of building process I will post down here later.

Thanks for watching)

No, i didn't) I have a couple of blue Grand Cherokee bodies, and I want to build them like my MAXTRAX FJ team.

Volk98,
Great job so far. Looks awesome. Can't wait to see the end result.

Gula,

That looks awesome. Those wraith axles look to be the perfect track width for that body. Great job

It was a eztec toy pretty scale stock form from what I remember. Lights all worked even had an alarm I think. They didn't sell well and went on sale for. $26 a real long time ago.

Looks real, Volk!, I've always liked wagon wheels, usually try to find a set for my 1:1's, the white rims really offset the blue, looks sharp.

Hello Everybody!

First of all some action photos









And "underhood" photos





My Jeep was built on axial wraith’s axles and geabox, so I decided to buy one more wraith.
It was an a Poison Spider Wraith with nice blue body and really good BF Goodrich tires.



I had removed stock Ripsaw tires and installed new BF Goodrich.



Looks more better I think, also these tires are harder than stock tires, so Cheerokee doesn’t flip over anymore.



I love this picture
