Wreckluse Feedback, Support & FAQ

[Die-Laughing]

I ordered my Wreckluse from RCPcrawlers recently. Should be here soon. Im excited to start my build!

[TrailDawg362]

You're going to love your new chassis, have fun building it. Post up some pics when you're done .

Any update on replacement body panels? I know it's a long-shot but I just had to ask.

jeep wrangler
I've seen the 70's bronco
and the large 70's chevy truck
I'm going to try a new bright JK Jeep hardbody front
I've seen a few hard body front ends that look great

I am glad that I found this thread. It answered most of my questions. Can't wait to order mine in a few days.

How wide do the wheels set apart now?

most guys run the AX10 axles
you can run 1.9 or 2.2 rims and tires
you can also stretch the Wheel Base if you like
for better approach on the really steep stuff.
I've seen a wide variety of set-ups
The Wreckluse a great platform to start with

The great customer support meant a lot when i called. Very few companies take the time to actually help customers like you guys do. I look forward to placing my order next week as well as a few others for my build. Thanks.

....not a bad deal
I'll check to see the cost to run a hundred or so.
Is anyone interested in a carbon-fiber Wreckluse hood?

Did you ever have a chance to check into making replacement (flat) body panels?

it's the minimum order that makes it unreasonable
I can create a cad file you could use as a template
to cut your own ...out of beer cans or flat lexan

Can I get that file by chance? Pm me please, thanks!

[dblrnut]

I would for sure buy a carbonfiber hood, and I would be interested in those cad drawings to make me some panels

Replacement panels ??? When will they be available ???

[hscrugby]

Did you ever make that CAD file for the panels?
If not, i'm going to try and use my plastic ones as a guide. :(

[TrailDawg362]

That's what I ended up doing. I went with aluminum sheet material for the lower belly plates and repainted the outside of the original hood and clearcoated it. Stock replacements would have been nice though .

I would be intrested in getting this cad file also if possible.
