| I want to completely rebuild the summit--ideas?
So my summit LT is fun but the super long wheel base bugs me and I can't find any bodies that are scale looking with a 15" wheelbase. So here's my mission: Build a summit based scale crawler while keeping the front and rear diffs and the transmission. I'd like the wheelbase to be around 13.8" so it'll fit this body http://prolineracing.com/bodies/ford...revo-revo-mgt/ tires will be 2.2's and I'm hoping to keep it at 1/10th scale (ish) to go with the rest of the trucks I run with.. So ideas anyone? Anyone seen one like this out there? links? Hate to re-invent the wheel if I don't have to. |

I found building cages that are larger than most 1/10 bodies brings it a bit more to scale. I like the idea of using summit parts on a custom chassis for sure. I just cant imagine putting 2.2s on this truck. I wheel with other 2.2 rigs and its just not the same. |
