|  Daddyduck,s tlt-1 scaler build
Well I got a basically brand new rock buster today. The guy really took care of it. It has a real fast motor in it with Jr fm radio. Looking foward to building a sweet truck out of it. I have built Axial trucks wheely king crawlers and scalers. A txt1 and a tundra. So I know a little. It around Tamiya toys. I really want to make a 1.5 scale out of it.

I own a lot if jeep scalers I want to stay with jeeps. The only ones I don't have is the jk 4d and the rj speed one. Which do you think? Is the rj speed one big enough? It looks old school. Sent from my HTC HD2 using Tapatalk |

I just got a dingo body for my tlt. My chassis fits it perfect. I might be able to get away w/ Velcro attaching body. If u still wanna use my chassis for a layout that's fine w/ me cuz it can be cut to size Sent from my cellular telebox |

Not at all. It has the fender flares on the body and it actually lines up almost perfect Sent from my cellular telebox |
