well got a little more done on it today...still need to clean it up a little but it's prety much done...I think the 1.9's will fit much nicer than the 2.2

That looks so damn GD Yes I think 1.9's are going to look better on tere so the new RC4WD wheels and tires will be my choice!

And Yet....you keep saying that!


Those new wheels and tires will look great on there. I really like the swinging tire mount.

The swing out mount for the spare is a nice touch. Lots of good ideas for my first build.

well I think my part of this build is done (for now anyway) time to give it back to Corey and let him finish it up, I almost don't want to give it back to him, anyway here are the final pics of my part, roof rack, front "bumper", rear bumper with swing out tire carrier & reciever hitch, and rock slides (nerf bars)...

thanks guys

YV, yea I make the tubers for Corey.

well as for the dimple die thing well I gave you guys a link to the 1:1 version and mine looks prety much the same as the pics there the only diff is I use a hammer instead of a press for these small ones and my dies ar'nt quite as nice looking....

oh yea just talked to Corey and I "twisted his arm" to make one more thing for this rig, which when all finished IMO should put this build "over the top"...LOL...but pics of that will have to wait for the final pics from Corey.
