I decided to try my hand at some custom built rock sliders. Some 3/16 steel rod and a mig welder, so far so good,I think.

Re: What are you working on??
 
So, after I basically ruined the Bronco body trying to paint it, I decided to just take it off the SCX-10 and use the Subaru Impreza body from my HPI RS4 Rally because I like the paint job I did on it when it was new(2 decades ago...).
It's pretty badly beaten and has lots of road rash, but I still like it.:lmao:

I had to do some serious trimming(obviously) in the front and a little in the back.
The wheelbase is off and it sits arse-high, but whatever... LOL

Crappy cell phone pics:

Made Custom extended SCX10 Front links for a better approach angle.

Checked over the Wraith and Chevy Scx10. All good to go.

Considering lengthening the links on the Ford flatbed for better approach angles.
Painted the bed.
