I think the 2face tires would look sick as hell on this rig.

i agree..that was the 1st thing that popped in my head..

"finally,i can use the 2faces on a rig!"



i saw that Mr. Freqeskinz had already whipped out some skinz for it..


so i asked that he make me some up in my urban camo scheme for
my 2win banger.


stripping the anodizing off the shock caps/motor mount will be my 1st task...
that green just doesnt do it for me...

That is sexy as hell! I just got off the phone with Neil ordering up a set for mine. I told him you said he could do mine first... Thanks

The two faces look best but the 1.55 wheel size is spot on, IMO.

just gave it a 1st run/test...

not a bad lil rig..
i have a small rock section over here at my girls house i can play around on while i stay at her house on weekends.
Ive made a pretty knarly crack in the rocks i have to contend with..it can get bound up reeaall good.
You definatly have to use the skinny pedal to get it thru some places as the stock motor and open diff just doesnt have the grunt to get it done smoothly.

Love banging the 2spd around..too cool!
Running it at highspeed then downshifting and hearing the motor catch and drag to a slower speed is just cool and has a scale feel to it.

Those hop ups on the rocks were sweet! Tires and wheels look good as well.

my homebrew'd locker...

2 small wood trim staples..




when assembled the sun gear compresses the staples into the spider gears..thus locking it up.

How do the Pitbulls compare in size to the stock tires?
And would the pitbulls handle higher speeds better or worse than stock?
