My 1:6th Willys Jeep build (GI Joe)

[eunique]

But that depends on the Jeep. My early '60's -'70's Hasbro Jeep, (the original), is a wider body, and looks better with the wraith axles, more stable.

I see...I didn't know they were different sizes.
That's good to know.

my 1/6 scale Nylint TJ build
makes wraith axles seem narrow ;-)

Thanks for the input and heads up.

I ditched the blue/purple on mine, and went camo, still working on the rebuild, upgraded the servo, and adding a steel spare and jerry can holder mounted to the rear bumper, and a different front bumper with a grill guard and stinger for the front. It's been hot and humid in chicagoland for the last week, so I haven't been out in the garage. Supposed to be back in the 60's next weekend.

I added some weights to the front wheels for better crawling abilities





And made full cage

Lookin' good brother. Nice bumper. Cheers!

Thanks bro, I added to tie supports to bumper today. The cleanliness of the materials has definitely helped my brazing. And not keeping the heat too long

The grill guard and stinger look real good, "thumbsup" and it looked like Devils Mountain ate your first rollbar!

Hahaha...yes for sure. That first roll bar disintegrates on first roll. LOL

I gotta get in touch with a few 1/6th scale Jerp buddies and get back out on the trails. Mine has been sitting in a duffle bag for almost 7 months without seeing any dirt.....
