Looking good. I almost used my Hustler chassis on my bully's. What's your clearance under your chassis skid? I like how you mounted the shocks to the axles. Way better than a drop set up. How tall are your plowboys? 8" ? Last edited by Agama; 01-24-2010 at 09:50 PM. Reason: added text |

the wheels are 2" the tires are full width plowboys. when i get some steering parts here gonna get some more pics up. guess its gonna be rc4wd parts to start. i didnt use the rc4wd 23mm hexes instead i used the hexes from the redcat i had. the tuck the wheels closer to the knuckles which worked out well with my lazy wheel narrowing job. the plowboys are 7.5" and the shocks are experimental im gonna give them a shot i only have them on the front the rear is still droop. thanks for the comments guys ive really learned a lot here and maybe contributed a little too.

Well, that can be done a few ways. You could talk to a vendor and have them print and cut some paint masks, or decals for you. Or, I have seen some people that find the image they want in a magazine and cut that out, and glue it to the inside of your panel and then paint over it. The other way is have the panels painted with the design you want. Some of the vendors on this site have some sick skills. The red bull one you have was done with stickers, some were removed like paint masks and the actual bull was left on of course. If you read in the paint and body section under the tips and trick sticky, you will find some good ideas |

The super bully looks great. I love those the wheels and tires. As for the trademarked stickers from certain companies, RCC has been contacted that it is not legal for vendors to sell trade marked images. As a vendor I was notified of this even though I do not sell stickers. I am just passing the info along so you understand why you will not see certain trade marked images for sale on sticker sheets in the vendor section. |

You know, I am not sure. I don't know what the difference is between the two. If I can find out what the difference is, I will be able to know what that one is. I will work on it today. | |
