Default New 4 door Jk body.

This was my birthday present from my wife. I painted the body to match my real Jeep. It's VERY close just a hair darker.

Well happy birthday, the JK body looks great and so does your 1:1. Are you going to try and fit a spare wheel and tire to the CR-01?

Nice looking jeeps - love the color! Don't know that I've ever seen that color on a jeep around these parts. (have seen a few Chargers and Challengers in Hemi Orange...but that's it)

Thanks. The color is new for 2012 it's called crush clear. There's also a gecko green that I really like but the wife wouldn't let me buy it. That's what color I'm gonna try to paint my 2 door body. No Spare, it'll just get ripped off anyway

Cool color. I too have not seen this in person. Always fun having a scale version of your own ride though. I still have a Durango body I bought back in 2000 when I bought my 1:1 Durango. I had to custom mix the paint to get a match to the Platinum Metallic. Nice job!

Wow very nice. What shocks are you running on that rig? I swapped out the cantilever set up for some shocks I pulled off of an EMaxx but they are a bit soft.

Umm, all I know is that they are made by Traxxas, not sure what model they are for. I never thought I would hear someone say that their shocks are too soft for crawling...
