So i recently picked up a super clod kit at a good price and then after that I picked up the Rockbull chassis from RC4WD also picked up the steering kits for 4ws and the wide kit and mud slinger tires. For electronics im running the rooster crawler esc with novak 55's on each axle along with KO 2174 and KO 2144 servos. I do plan on changing a few other things but this is how it is for now.

Great looking truck! Who make that body?

Big Chris · 12-30-2008, 01:09 PM

Its an old body made by atomik that i had on my old savage.

Jeepial · 12-30-2008, 08:40 PM

Sweet rig man...It looks freakin awesome and thos tires are sick!!

bullet1231 · 12-30-2008, 09:39 PM

im sure that body could go a little lower, its too high for my taste. looks good nonetheless..

Big Chris · 12-31-2008, 02:18 AM

the body could go lower but right now it doesnt rub at all and i like that i dont want to run a hacked up body but when i order the new one i might lower it a bit more

NitroX · 12-31-2008, 10:37 AM

I dont know why the Rockbull chassis gets such a bad rap, I have one and with a few minor tweeks, its a perfectly capable rig, I love mine! Thats a nice one you have there Chris.

pedemaster-rc · 12-31-2008, 11:12 AM

nice truck bro. love the body and with the mudslingers mounted it looks deadly cool.

jedsled · 12-31-2008, 01:38 PM

drop that body! i bet it'll crawl better with moabs, try em when you get a chance.

v4impactor · 12-31-2008, 05:39 PM

Sweet truck! Are those the Integy msr10 shocks?

Big Chris · 12-31-2008, 08:20 PM

thanks guys! the rockbull chassis is good from what i got so far. today i took it out to the sacramento location and did a new hill climb thats pretty steep i say it like 70degree and it went up with no problems. I hate how people say mine isnt a crawler just because its not a 2.2 and yea those are the integy shocks

v4impactor · 01-06-2009, 09:37 PM

If anyone is interested in that body style, my buddy has a few of them and is willing to sell them, so if you want contact me.

JLF · 01-06-2009, 10:41 PM

What a fantastic looking rig!

Great photos too!

Youve inspired the direction Im going to take! Thanks!

Crappy phone camera but here's a shot of our last crawling. Big Chris in the back and mine is the yellow jeep in the middle.

NitroX · 01-06-2009, 11:56 PM

Nice posing, lets see a vid!! lol...

Espeefan · 01-07-2009, 12:52 AM

I love the body too. I remember when you could them like that with the graphics. Looks hot. I love the tires too. Are those RC4WD tires or Imex Swamp Dawgs (is that what they call'em?) I can't quite make out the writting on the sidewalls. It's a great looking rig. How are you liking those Integy shocks so far? Been thinking about trying a set.

carzlutt · 01-07-2009, 11:34 AM

thats a rad looking truck!... good job. u have any issues blowing up servos? i run tires about that big adn seems to kill servos realy freaking easy. burnt up motors, broken gears. if i run a servo saver then i get ultra lame steering responce, iv been debating going to 1/4 scale servos...

thanks

doors4u · 01-07-2009, 12:44 PM

I love the urban camo look. Nice truck man.

heminutt · 01-07-2009, 12:47 PM

nice rig

smokin0137 · 01-07-2009, 05:40 PM

Go with a stick chassis.You wont cut the body(I love the Ford).Crawling does not get better than a stick.Clods rule!

Nice pics.Lets go cloding,lol.

Seriosly,a stick will serve you well from your pics.

Home made and free.
