@JatoTheRipper - is there a way to re/down-size pic here? Or, do they need to smaller before bringing them in? I've been doing the latter.

Got some more goodies Those RC4wd Warn hubs are just plain awesome. Need to get different tires for the rally’s as the Pro-Line KO2’s seem too small and narrow. Guess time to spend more $$$$! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Got two of the RC4wd rally’s mounted. They were a pain. Unsure if I’m gonna paint the letters. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Got them all done today. Not a fan of the smaller letters or the RC4wd bead locks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Love your build. Any chance of even more pictures of the fuel tank? I have the same tank (I think) but I can't find mounting holes as long back as yours (apparently, kinda hard to see). I'm wondering if Im struggling because I originally have the Bronco and not the Blazer, and I'm using the same bumper "bracket" that came with the Bronco for the Blazer bumpers, making the fuel tank kinda bump into the mounting bracket thingie for the bumper. |

I can get you some pics here in a little bit. I had to drill them myself. I didn’t like where the factory holes were. I thought it looked more scale where I placed it. Thanks for the compliment as I’m really impressed how it’s turned out so far. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

[QUOTE=monsterbeetleguy;6031707]I can get you some pics here in a little bit. I had to drill them myself. I didn’t like where the factory holes were. I thought it looked more scale where I placed it. Thanks for the compliment as I’m really impressed how it’s turned out so far. Makes perfect sense. I think I'll drill holes myself - if not it just looks "off". Thanks for solving the mystery As for your build - man it's nice. I've ordered the same rims / wheel combo (I hope). Rocking orange / white body though, but have done some of the same mods. Those metall badges are NICE! Wonder if I should order another set to have for each side... Waiting for new bumpers, really curious to see how they work. From every picture I've seen of the real car, the bumpers arent very ... either big or modded. |

Yeah scale bumpers are hit and miss. I chose the SSD winch bumper because it looks almost identical to the old Warn winch bumpers. I’m sure it limits my approach and departure angles, but it sure is hard to beat the look of it. I have my orange/white body just setting on the shelf. Thinking I might get my wife a Trx4 Sport as don’t think she needs the two speed and remote lockers. Just gotta buy all the replacement parts I stole off the body when I did my 75 Blazer. Post some pics of your build. I’d love to see it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I ditched the MyTrickRc light kit as was junk and tech support was no help. Went and installed a Traxxas Light kit along with their rock light kit. I also added a on/off switch to them as well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Bought the chrome bits that I stole of my orange body to put on my 75 yellow Blazer body. So now I have a body to beat on! I also bought a Traxxas Rigid lightbar and mounted it to a roof rack I sourced from Amazon. Man this thing is bright! And finally I added the Traxxas GM folding mirrors to the 75 body.

Nice looking build! While I like the Blazers. I more of a Bronco guy. My local shop has one and if I hadn't just got a TRX6. I would buy the Bronco. |
