Need help deciding!!!

[Phildirt]

Or the Gas Monkey rig with a no prep drag car body

[Phildirt]

Or find an old Parma body and do the Avenger...

[Phildirt]

There are way more interesting bodies than that Gozer or a Silverado. Yes I’m opinionated haha. Sorry for the thread jack, I just love monster trucks and hate to see a wasted opportunity for greatness LOL.

Haha yeah I understand what you mean.

The whole reason for wanting a Chevy body is for this truck. Monstermax

Monster Max is ok...looks like all of the mud trucks around here though.

That JConcepts Lloyd body was in my top 5. This is in order:

ProLine c10, Traxxas 69 Blazer, Axial 67 c10, Proline 2014 Silverado, JConcepts Lloyd

Honorable mention:

JConcepts square body Chevy, JConcepts Creep, Proline Dodge Ram, Traxxas Bronco, Club5 Ranger (not sure exactly who makes that, may be Team Raffee but that’s the site I saw it on)

Edit: I spent waaaay too much time planning a truck I probably will never build haha

Yet Upper Rear Links x2 $25
Lower TA delete links x2 $25

That’s pretty much what I’m doing lmao. Spending too much time on a truck I’ll never get, at least for a while.

It’s too bad that the HPI Savage body’s aren’t as easy to get any more, I really want a new Grave Robber body for my WK and always thought getting one of their Charger bodies, painting black with a bed lined roof and call it “The Assasin” would be pretty awesome!

That would be really cool!

Thread bump!!

From Horizon Hobby on the overview section on the LMT!

"For the true Monster truck experience, the axles also allow for optional 4-wheel steering"

Awesome!!! This gives me high hopes for this truck! Im glad i didn't splurge and buy an SMT10 about a month ago Very curious to how this will work and how much extra parts you need to have 4ws. I would really like to have 4ws for scale factor, although it seems it'll never get used because the turning circle seems already relatively tight.

Side note, props to Losi! they have been pumping out some awesome stuff lately!!

What else did they release/what did I miss


That 4 wheel steering deal has been in the description on Losi's site since they released it. Pretty sure Horizon just copies those descriptions verbatim.

The SBR 2.0, Lazernut and the FIVE-T 2.0 are all pretty cool IMO.
