cr01 with unimog body

[theonek]

what do you think

[Natedog]

Looks very good, just get some more inset rims and you're done!!! I like the big wheels/tires on it. Not bad with the 1.9s but the 2.2 with big tires is better.

[Roc]

I'd drop that body down a bit, look a bit high. Other than that looks awesome.

[xzk7nr]

I think it looks cool

[iluvmud]

i like it, im partial to the larger 2.2 setup, but this also looks great, isnt there a larger set of 1.9 tires available? just to kind fill the gap in the fenders...... and i just noticed the crack in the windshield.... bummer :-(.... but it looks good any way you roll with it.....

[Fobby]

That's pretty cool, good job going for the 1.9 setup! I would avoid 2.2's, way too played out and goofy.

For being as is I would also say stick to a higher offset wheel. It just seems a bit too wide. Those wheels do kickass but not for these axles imo. The frame rails look good unpainted. Its part of what makes the look.

Now if you could just lower the body/bed a bit more it would be perfect. It does not seem like you can unless its with major cutting. If not it still looks good in that lifted kind of way =P

well i have a bruiser that's 2.2 scaled...i agree with the frame rails. yea i like the lifted kinda look but as for the rims i do wish they set in a little bit more, but what else can i do...

[theonek]

what do you guys think of the tires? do you think i could have put a better looking tire on here? if so which one?

[iluvmud]

i like those, but im partial to the more aggressive tires.... like the rock crushers and youre right those are the biggest 1.9tires you can find.... luckily the Rock Crushers ar the same size.

true but! hehee the crushers don't work that great... :-( i love the look but as for how they work I'm not impressed

[theonek]

i took it out for the first time and i must say, very fun and it worked pretty damn good! with this body it worked great on up hill, down hill and even side hilling. well here's some more pics.

enjoy

Looks great! How heavy is that body? Does the truck behave like a weeble wobble?

its not to heavy and not "weeble wobble" at all, very stable and even side hills way better then i thought it would

[ScorpioCrawler]

tires look a little wide for the body, might look good with a jeep body on it though!! looking good man have you looked at the trail doctor tires? http://sdi4x4.com/product_info.php?products_id=32 sweet looking tire

[theonek]

there cool but to small

[Fobby]

That link is for the regular trail doctors, check out the the xl version. Now that is very noticably bigger. Probably the biggest 1.9 tire if I'm not mistaken. Team those up with some hummer wheels to bring down the width and you're golden =P

Nice pics. Don't want to be a biter but when I do get a cr01 I just might throw a unimog body on there too. Hope its not too time consuming mounting it. Any hassles changing the battery out?

ill have to check them out... and as a battery change, kinda a pain in the but but i have a 5000 mah lipo so this thing runs for ever!i drove it on saturday for about 3hours straight, came home to charge the battery because i thought it would be almost dead and the battery only took 1500 mah in... oh yea that's what I'm talking about!
