Default Proline Jeep JK body

Thought I'd post a few pics of my new JK body that one of the local guys (Tim C) painted up for me..

It's a stock SCX-10 kit with CKRC 1.9 alum beadlocks that I had on my MRC. I used the supplied Flatirons for now. It's got a CC Sidewinder micro and a HH Handwound 25T with a 16t pinion.

The paint is a customer blend that Tim did to try and match my 1:1 08 JK. which is Red Rock Candy Pearl.. He matched it almost exactly!!!

The plan is to get RC4WD JK wheels with probably the TSL swampers and then trick it out with some accessories... Will also be looking to see if I can find an interior that I can put in it too..

They are the 1.9 Flat Irons that come with the SCX-10. I might even try some Rok Lox.. They will be taller I think...

Kool,cheers for that.For some reason i thought the JK body was suited to 2.2s,but the 1.9s dont look to small. Sort of stock standard looking.

I just picked up some Rox Lox. They are taller than the flatties. We'll see how they work

So here's a pic with the Rox Lox on.. They are a bit taller and may require some trimming.. But I think they look really good

Yeah,looks good with the roclox . I just checked out a mates Jk he just got with 1.9 flatties,you definitely wouldnt want a smaller tire than the flatties tho.

Wheelbase is stock SCX-10. the kit I got was the one with the CF-100 pickup.. I've got that body out to another local guy (Cruzin Illuzion) and he's painting it up exactly like whats on the box (green and silver).. I plan on using the stock wheels and flatties on that body, then run a set of RC4WD 1.9 JK wheels with either the Rox Lox or the new Pro-line Swampers with this body..

Not going to get to wild with this chassis as I've got another short wheel base Nikko TJ (10") that's my basher.. The main goal with this chassis is keeping it close to what a stock Jeep or pickup could do. It will be waterproof though... That was my #1 goal
