Default NEW J Concepts Rock Steady Single Cab

Paul Wynn from J Concepts sent me a couple of new JC crawler bodies to paint and test. Now that I've gotten the paint out of the way I will begin my intense testing this week.
I really like the low profile and rigidness of the body.
I did cut the front bumper off..

Nice, very nice indeed...

If you get a chance would you post a pic of it beside a grappler??

Thanks,

BD

Sure, it's about the same size as a Rockstar...only a lot smoother lines...

Does the extra cab look like it will recover from a roll-over easier?

Also, put the single and xtra cab side by side...

please and thank you

I think this single cab would recover easier. I don't have an extra cab at the moment. They are the same length. Extra cab has a shorter bed and the single cab has a longer bed.

I'll post up a pic tomorrow, my standard cab is still being painted.

I agree, I think the standard cab will recover easier!

Looks great with paint on it, Mike
Sometimes these bodies can be hard to visualize when there's no paint on them

Thanks Matt, I'm really liking it so far. Nice smooth lines, low profile, and looks good.

This one has already got a home. My home...
I'm sure I'll have plenty to paint when they become available...
