These are the Crawlers I got laying around at the moment. I'll just edit this post as things change because if I don't I'll clutter this thread up with the way I change things around. -Hilux is traded away -Bronco X-Trail is traded away -Sniper Chassis is traded away Comp buggy -Tube chassis by me -Axial Trans and Axles stuffed with Bonus Line lockers with hardened ring and pinions -MIP shafts -RCP Knuckles up front with Axial CVDs and STRC Straight axle conversion in the rear -Shocks are stockers with internal droop springs and external HPI WK springs -Hitc 5645 servo with a Novak Crawler/55 combo to keep it company with a DX3R to contol it all powered by some MaxAmp 3s Lipos. -Losi Claws on Axial black chrome rims with TCS rings and some 3mm hardware holding the extra 4oz in the front. Losi Mini Crawler Weighted the front wheels Last edited by Mriswith; 11-08-2008 at 03:32 PM. Reason: Updates |

Well I just couldn't resist getting in on the 1.9 thing. I just got a new Toyota Hilux on Friday and had to go wheel it a little bit yester day to see how she handles. So far I have done the body drop mod and the Chino spring mod to help with the flex. The narro stance takes a little getting use to after driving mostly comp rigs. Hopefully I will get paint on it this week and a set of 1.9 rock crushers. Last edited by tqcookie; 09-01-2008 at 11:44 AM. |

Here is my current tuber that I built this year. This was taken in Cali at Vasquez Rocks park. Here is my savage x. This pic is from last year though. It is currently completely torn down and getting an extreme overhaul. I have some other projects I will get pics of eventually. |

Well guys, I have already posted pictures of this rig but thought we needed to give this thread a little bump. I have been busy with this one since the last pictures I posted of it. I have got it painted along with a new Integy 45 turn motor and new HPI stock car wheels with RC4WD Rock Crushers mounted to them. Mad a couple new coolers for the back and got the spare mounted. According to Dave you can't have a scale rig without lights. So in went the lights. 12 to be exact. What a pain in the butt. |

This thread is getting stagnant so I'll post up my old builds. I'll start with from the beginning with my TLT's. My original Misfit build. My Misfit builds all used the same axle mounted motor design. The pictures of it are down with the MIsfit 2.5 pics. Misfit V2.0 Misfit V2.5 - I got rid of the first Misfit and a few months later was missing it. So I had to build another one. I built the second with TLT shocks just to prove a point. The divorced motor/GD-600 combo had zero torque twist. I also used the stock TLT chassis with out drilling any holes. This was the drive train on all my Misfit builds FJ Scaler - I used the same drive line principle as the Misfit's. Worked great. |

I was going to show my Wheely Kings builds but if you look up the page, you'll see the Green and White Escalade rolling on Masher 2k's, "The King". So I'll throw up my Axials. There's another Axial I won't bother posting. Again if you look up the page you'll see a black FJ with green accents sporting Geo's. Another one of my builds, although the bumper and roof rack was all Tony. My very first Axial Comp Axial with stock Chassis TCS X-Trail Bronco I've been saving the best for last. Between the Comp Axial and the Bronco is about the time I started playing with the torch. I'll save those for another post. Last edited by Mriswith; 01-22-2009 at 11:41 AM. |

Here's a little fleet snapshot from way back. Back when "The King" was my WK called Elvis, the Scorpion was new and I did my first Tube chassis with the last of my TLT axles. You'll notice the tube buggy had the same divorced motor/GD-600 thing as the rest of my TLT's. |

Now I get to my tubers. I've started 9 of them but only finished 7 of them. Quote:
My Sgt Rock was my first tube scaler. This was my last completed TLT rig. My next one was my Jeep scaler with WK axles Then I tried my hand at an Axial based comp tuber. This was my prototype. It lead to 3 other other comp chassis that I sold or traded off. I ended getting my orignal WK axles back and built another scale tube buggy. Everyone should remember the Sniper. Actually I started the build with Axial axles but the chassis ended up a tad bigger than I intended so I swapped in the WK units. This actually brings me up to date. The only crawler I have completed right now is my Losi MRC and thats pictured in my first post. | |
