| 1987 Ford F-350 Double+Extended Cab micro-mini crawler
I missed a classic truck and started to work with this 1/25 scale F-350. I wanted to get more power than the micro crawler has, so I used Losi mini crawler parts. Mini crawler is my first crawler, it rested for a while, now it has a new life. Losi micro crawler axles wheels rear shocks frame Losi mini crawler links plate motor transmission electronics servo combined shafts Mini-z Overland front shocks Monogram dual body The truck was moving too slowly with the micro crawler axles and I had to remove the large gear from the transmission. |

Looks nice!! Very scale I think it would benefit greatly from four-wheel-steering with how long it is. I know that's not very scale, but if you want it to be more drivable. Some Baja Claw or Super Swamper tires would help also... |

Wow that beast is awesome. Wonderful scale effects. So have you thought about trying to get the batts lower? Try to lower CG? Great job! Regards, Jimmy |

Thanks! The battery is very fragile, fortunately it's working, I prefer not to touch it. Converting Losi micro crawler chassis to 6wd and Meng Ford F-350 body to 6 door. Showing step-by-step, in case you want to convert your. Additional parts, which I used: rear axle 2 shafts, 1 similar part of each 6 links Shocks frame extension shat connector wheels Cut the rear side of the axle to connect the shaft. Combine links and attach to the frame and the middle axle. Shaft extension can be made using Lego parts. It was quite simple, wasn't it? |

Thanks, I would like to see it too, and here it is! I detected that the rear axle is not working properly, so it ran as 8wd at this North Pole expedition. |

Wow. Just WOW!! This is just great! Nice pics, too. I want to build a six wheeler in the future, and was contemplating how the pass-through axle would work. I agree with RootBreaker.....bad ass!! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |
