Noob that just bought a crawler king used

[Welderman85]

Couple of dumb questions. What could be used to turn a crawler king into a decent MT . And are parts easy to get . I hope I didn't just get a truck that will ne discounted soon and parts will be hard to get. Thank you

What do you mean by MT? There is a lot you can do with a Crawler King/Wheely King this is the truck I first started with and had alot of fun with. I'm not up on that model whether or not it's discontinued but I do know parts availability is good for it."thumbsup"

Thanks, I basically copied a Axial SCX10 chassis but used all the Crawler King components. It worked very well on the trail.

if you want a monster truck out of a crawler king, then you have a good base. its the same as the wheely king except it has an extended wheel base and a higher turn crawler motor then the Wk.

look on here and youtube, i know there are some good info in those videos.

I have a set of hpi wheely king axles with aluminum knuckles, aluminum c hubs, aluminum rear lock outs, MIP cvd’s on front axle. I’d consider selling for $140 shipped.
