RED is the new green

[The_Green_Mennie]

What can a guy say. I've got 5 trucks that I've custom built myself. They are all very different designs and all work well for what they were meant for. The problem is I'm out using truck #6 the AX-10. Its not my design, until now. I went to the shop and took the chassis apart and tweaked there design a little here and a little there. Slapped it back together and went to a hour trail ride on Mt. Doug. Was very happy to see my changes in the chassis work better then the stock one. Now it feels a little more like one of my trucks.
The first 5

and the newly modded AX-10

Nice, but way way to much flex to be useful as a crawler.

I like the custom stuff though, the tires look cool.

lol.... thanks man, your right about the flex. if you look closely you will see a shadow on th top tire, that would be me holding it there. It will never get that much flex when crawling

They have done some time on my TR2 with the old Dodge body on it.

How in the world do you narrow tires?

How in the world do you narrow tires?

some sharp scissors, allot of time and some zap a gap

 

[CHEEZBURGER]

What is this "zap a gap" that you speak of

 

[silversuper]

the flex and those tires are insane

nice job

 

[Turps]

'Zap A Gap' = Tire glue. Comes in a number of different speaks. Sticks like Loctite 401.
