Decided to build my own
 

There isn’t much I can find for the trx4. So I decided to build a cage/chassis for my trx4 using the proline Jeep Wrangler body. What do you all think?Attachment 379782Attachment 379783Attachment 379784Attachment 379785Attachment 379786Attachment 379787Attachment 379788

That thing is awesome. I too have been finding it hard to find custom things like this. That would be a great product to make per person. Maybe even if you have a powder coat place near you. Keep up the great work.

I think you welded up a nice cage for that jeep. Love the sliders you've put in the design. Nice work! Look forward to seeing this one come together and crawl!

I actually powder coat myself and plane on doing so, once I’ve got her where I want her. I’ll keep on updating and maybe even sale this one and build another. I just love to build!!! LolAttachment 379791Attachment 379792

Thats even better. I was talking to my LHS yesterday about how I was more of a builder than a driver back when I was racing. Team mechanic and all.

Same here. I’m an aircraft Mech. But I also build realcrawlers too.

Looking good! Dig the cage work.

Re: Decided to build my own
 

Thanks. How about we start a vote on what color to powder coat cage. I use prismatic powders if someone wants to do a little research.

I am a big fan of the tangerine twist they offer.

I used a similar color for a nova I worked on. But I’m not sure it’ll match the new wheels. But I can always buy others. Lol.

Whatever color it ends up being will have a satin finish. Just looks more expensive that way. Lol.

Add a couple pounds as low as you can get. LOL. Looks awesome

Re: Decided to build my own
 

Oh the axles have tons off brass and it has a huge battery very low. I just tested it now and works great. But key point like you said. I looks amazing. But I’m still a function before fashion kind of guy.
