You gonna run 2.2 tires or something bigger. What body you gonna run once it's dialed in.

Both of the are hot. Right not i'm messing with my Turmoil Pro Buggy. Trying to sturn it into a Short Truck. I was thinking of trying to us the wing mount to mock up some spare tires. Just havent figured out how to just yet. Waitin for my SC10 body to some in to mount that on it. But i want it to look like the one u have where the tires are standing up.

Crimson Feight · 08-20-2009, 05:22 PM

What are people's thoughts on using an AX10 axle to do this?

dunerdude69 · 08-20-2009, 06:42 PM

KROGOTH · 08-21-2009, 09:15 AM

Sorry if Im bring a post back from the dead but I had to comment.

Simply awesome work. When I get back to the states, screw making a 'Yota scaler, youve inspired me to make a Trophy Truck scaler, if the guy who is making a chassis for me can swing that!

Great stuff!

I love the Pro-Line Hardcore bodies, they look great.

z50_Jumper · 08-21-2009, 11:43 AM

Nicklovin, why the hell did you quote every single picture and ask a question that is probably already answered in the past 5 pages.

Anyways. RC4wd is releasing a chassis for the slash that will convert it to a straigh axel, will probably be the easiest way to buld a truck like these.

calikingcrawler · 08-22-2009, 12:43 AM

Anyone know if an Evader chassis would work well for a build like this? My bro has one, that he wants to get rid of.
