|  Matteo's mini CJ
Well santa brought me and my son matteo some micro crawlers for xmas! We decided that they couldnt stay stock and that they needed to be a scaler.. So we bought a jeep cj model and started to cut and chop. Heres what we have now. brass tube fenders    And a drawing of the offroad park we are also going to build.    Ill have a good bit more done to the crawler as well as the park later on this weekend.. |

I haven't liked a lot of the CJ set-ups on these until now. I think that looks great...tire size to body is exactly to my taste. Are you going to do more to it?

Thanks Joe! Thats the exact kit I used for this build. The only thing that sucks is that huge steering servo poking out the front ..Whats everybody doing to hide them?? And Im sorry but I dont have anymore sketches to show but if I end up doing more Ill be sure to post them.. |

Great looking Micro, I recently built a Mini Rock Crawler Jeep and had the same problem with the servo saver, I adapted a static winch to fit and act as a cover for the servo saver. Could be worth a try.  |
