Default Bought a SCX24 Jeep CRC

I ran it for a while and had fun with it but in the end I decided I was a Toyota guy at heart.

So I decided it was time to change things up a bit.

Not exactly plug and play but getting things to fit is half the fun right?

Decided to do a magnetic mount up front to keep it clean.

Now for some color, definitely not staying white.

I was surprised to see the license plate decal was from the 808 state

I’m glad I didn’t glue the body to the bed.

Looks great, love the Yota and green color! CR-18 wheels and tires, how you like them, height and width?

Great job! And wheelbase is spot on - is this stock link length? And apparently the stock shocks are holding up the hardbody? My C10 lexan body is already sagging - LOL

Thanks!

The CR-18 wheels and tires are definitely a step up from stock. Better grip and way softer. The additional width helps with stability and side hilling.

The links are stock length. The body weight is too much for the stock shocks. I’ve since replace them with HR shocks and the included black springs with some preload. The Silver HR springs were way too stiff.

You turned a Jeep into a Toyota and simultaneously started and off-road war among those fanboyz!

It looks great. Nice job.

Which brand are the wheels exactly? Natedog mentioned "cr24", you said "cr-18" - they seem to be bigger than stock?
