| Re: RolandRockshop's Monsta Truck build
i was lil hasty when i was drilling out the clod wheels...  almost ruined 2 of them..  so ill be ordering another set. i was gonna go with the rc4wd delrin clod beadlocks..but.. they weigh @ 7.16oz each combined with the clod tires(9.75oz) would be @1lb each..  and im trying to stay as light as possible with this build. |

you could make up some ''EQR'' wheels. Clear linkages, not to much offset and look good Inside of a clodwheel glued to a traxxas monster jam pede wheel (use fron't on a ar60)    Last edited by william g; 12-24-2012 at 08:06 AM. |

Good start. I suggest the Parma 57 truck body or a K5 blazer.

You could always go with a proline short course body. Those things will take a hell of a beating.

looking good so far! I am thinking a Proline Suburban, Proline Chevy Silverado, Proline Bulldog (ekk!) or a short course body. |
