Project Creeper

[mastathug0]

Well I just finished building my creeper last night. It has a Sidewinder ESC, Hitec 645mg servo, Integy 55t lathe motor, and a Traxxas TQ3 radio system. The body is a Caddilac Escalade Ext with just the cab left for tire clearance. I'm waiting on my buddy to mask off Grave Digger style flames on my stock body, then that will get painted. during the build I took extra care on doing the tranny and axles to avoid binding and the diff problems. I will post pictures when my computer gets fixed.

Ya I know the body looks dumb (thats wat happens when you leave my brother alone with a body that rubs the tires), I'm going to put the stock body on it when it gets painted. I'm using Proline hammers on wheels that are under an inch wide. As for mods I like the way the truck is for now so when I get bored, I'm going to put Associated MGT Piggyback shocks on it.

I'm going through left over bodies from my rs4 untilI I get my stock one painted, I cut up a BMW last night for it (yes this one has a hood and trunk). I put the Associated MGT piggyback shocks on it tonight (they need lighter oil). Hopefully I will put some pics up tomorrow.

I'm going through the bodies I have from my Rs4 untill I get my stocker painted. The wheels are the rustler fronts if you can believe it. They are so narrow the two groves that the tire bead sits in are now touching each other. I also got some 25wt oil and new springs to soften up the piggyback shocks today. As a side note InFlames your truck looks awesome man, I really like your setup.

They are fairly hard to mount. The wheels are 5/8ths of an inch wide, compared to the stock 1" 7/8 width. So between that width and trying to force full memory foams and tires on, it's fairly tricky. Funny thing is it was an accident cutting them that narrow. I intended on about 1 1/4 inch, but slipped with my blade and had to cut them this narrow to save them. Yes they are all rustler fronts.

dont waste your time on the body they are not flexible and will crack badly over the simplest tumble.
