Great cab. Did you print it at once?

All the large pieces are printed and assembled. Decided I didnt like the fake shackles so I added some metal ones. Looks much better. Still have to figure out how to mount the front of the cab.

Looks great.
For the front mount i would use a aluminium strip and bent it in a u-shape.
Mount it on the frame rails. And to the body with velcro.

That's what I was thinking. But I think I'll use magnets instead. The underside of the hood has some gussets so I'll have to be creative

Painted the body and 3d printed myself a custom body/bumper mount. The rear is held on by the battery box (Lego container). Body is rock solid on the chassis but slide right off. Last body I needed two different drivers and a needle nose to get off. Need to figure out lights, windows, canvas bed cover, and all the small details yet.

Starting some of the details. Printing the light lenses and got the grill installed. LED's and motor should be here this week. Last on the "to acquire" list are some 5mm hardened rods and some 5mm pinions to rebuild a cheap Chinese transfer case.

That looks sooo sick. Any chance you want to grace us with the STL file you used?

Nice new 1415 2400kv. This should be plenty of power

Lights from PowershiftRC have been installed. Getting really close to taking this out for the first time. Taking the wife today to buy some canvas for the back of the truck, need her help with the fabric.

Looks killer. What kind of servo mount did you use in the rear?

No, what mount did you use? Didn't you have to flip the back axle? How'd you mount the servo on what would normally be the bottom of the axle?

I missed that part sorry. I use an SSD D60 axle. They are designed with the diff gear flipped. I just use the normal plate.

Took it out for the first time today. Already broke a light off when I rolled it. Good thing I can re-print just that little part.

A buddy of mine fabbed up a quick roll cage. We modeled it directly after the 3d printed roll cage that supports the canvas back, not sure if I'll put the canvas on or not.
