That's an interesting idea. What you plan on doing with the frame rails of the part-out kits?

You could just build 3 C34's and put one of the older bodies on one if possible. I've seen a C14 body on one but not a C24.

I was looking today and I think I'm gonna try to put my C14 and C24 bodies on the other two possibly, gonna have to dig into it further, the C34 chassis is a much better design with less stuff hanging down to get hung up on.

Yeah, and the Hilux bodies are way less top heavy. So you'd end up with the pros from both trucks

So eBay says my C24 is supposed to get here tomorrow but FedEx says Saturday, so I'll be waiting regardless. Hopefully tomorrow It shows up though, fingers crossed :P

Here they are lol. I painted a little bit of stuff though

I'd totally buy one of those spare frame/chassis off of you if you were willing to sell.

Thanks! I think I'll start selling them as a product. I've already come up with the second design.

I made a gearbox from an old servo.

I just got the MN99 gearbox for my C24. I did a little cutting to get it to fit, but other than that it was a direct drop in.

Talk about being late to the party! I just grabbed my first C14 kit. I designed some dually wheels for it if anyone wants to give them a try. If you do, let me know if I need to make any changes for your setup.

I was reading through this thread and someone was using these shocks...
Losi Mini-T Shocks

Is it the 60mm rear shocks in this kit that fits? I plan to design and print some new shock mounts, so I could actually put two holes in the mounts so the 55mm shocks can be mounted on the front. But I have contacted this seller to see if they can sell just the 60mm rear shocks from this kit.

Welcome to the family! I think I'm the only one who frequents this forum as much lately. I have heard that Mini T shocks work, I have a friend who has a bunch. But these are cheaper and would require less modification to fit since you could fit the stock springs

Nice! I will grab some of those as well as the rear shocks from the Losi if I can get that seller to just sell me the 60mm ones. That way I can design a mount to fit multiple offerings. Thanks for the link!

Edit:
I wish someone would design some nice oil filled true-to-scale shocks for these trucks =(
