FJ K2-3L Scale Build

[Got Rocks?]

i like the moabs more they just seem of more a allterrain offroad explore look

I like the new ones... look much more realistic

I agree, and I think the black rims looks better with the body.

Thanks guys, any more preferences? I guess it will probably come down to me trying out the Swampers and whichever one's work best will win. Swampers will probably be better in dirt and mud, moabs on rock.

I don't think either will work for the next build, probably too big. I am going to do one of the new Fj Cruisers, K2-4 chassis, 4 link (FJ cruisers run a four link rear and A arms front but I don't want to do A arms so 4 link all around it is), captured springs, turned down tlt shocks (hopefully), highlift axles, pede tranny, intellespeed esc, 45t motor, custom bumpers, 1.9 scale comp legal. I was going to put the moabs on it but I might as well not have two of almost the same type of truck. Besides I think it will look a lot more scale with smaller tires. Right now I am narrowing and reducing both claw dawgs and Dirt works. One of the two sets will go on it. I'm just waiting on the body to get here, I have almost everything else.

Hey, what shocks are you using and what is that blue box? It it the team associated waterproof one? Thanks.

 

[Just Zach]

I'm using tamiya touring car shocks. The blue box is just the box that a hitec servo comes in all taped up. It works pretty well. I have gone through 4 inches of water and mud most of the way up the wheels with no issues"thumbsup"

Ok, thanks for the help. Where did you get the shocks? I have looked around a little bit, but can't find them.

 

[Just Zach]

I just got them at my local hobby shop. They were the upgrade/perrformance ones.
