[Teng]

Go GRC

[durok]

Up until just now I have been able to see moedawi's pictures - all the sudden they are gone from his posts...

Were they posted through Photobucket?

Might have posted too many for them to remain free of charge?

i dont think Photobucket is allowing the pics to be posted on third party websites unless you pay 400 a year, what a shame i had this account with them for years def closing the account.
i'll repost the pics through flicker from now on.

im uploading all the pics in here since Photobucket is straight trash unless you payy 400 a year after 8 year of being a member...

That' s a very nice Defender

I am currently also building a rig with the GRC front motor kit -> CLICK (only german language).

The look is very nice but the kit is absolutely inacceptable noisy.
Sounds like a broken transmission, while everything is fine.

Thanks man, Actually my fans dont work hopefully when the trim kit that covers the gaps comes in it doesnt overheat the motor, are you working on the G Class?

Yes, right - i am working on the G-Class.

But it's still a secret for my forum dudes.
I will tell them not before mid of march.

Anyway, the rig is pretty nose-heavy now - what do you think about that?

It is very nose heavy hopefully that helps when i take it out crawling, havent had a chance to try it outdoors yet.

Unreal man - this is a great build and that engine is incredible! Making me want to do a Defender in addition to the Bronco I've got.

Where'd you get those pelican-style cases up on your roof rack?

Great looking build, I'm also wondering about the nose heaviness, found my TRX-4 works best with a slight forward balance point. Hopefully they get the gear noise fixed up with the GR unit, trucks already my noisiest crawler. A dab of flat black paint inside both exhaust pipes would add scale realism too.

The Gear is loud and its very nose heavy i'd say 60 to 65-35 ratio.
i might spray the whole exhaust pipe black, yes, no???

55/45 F/R seems better ime, gotta go downhill before or after going up.

No on all black (but outside a nice aluminum or gavlanized steel kinda color would look great imo), could add a little weathering if you're into that or it will self weather. Gotta have flat black inside the tips.

[moedawi]

So i believe im the 1st one to have this done or at least the 1st one to show this off online im very satisfied with it and love how it looks the engine brackets are CNC machined good quality stuff.
i believe this tuck is 100% done.
let me know what you think...
