It's all in one piece now, just need to add electronics. I'll get better pics if the sun ever comes out.

Thanks man, I wanted one since the first time I saw them, took a while but it was worth the wait!

Thanks, I struggled a little because this was my first time painting a hard body but it came out better than I thought. The color is deep jewel green

The beast is 99% complete, just need to paint the tail lights and the 3rd brake light. My son begged for the light bar so I installed it for now but it will be removed shortly. Here a few more pics........BTW, the three speed tranny is killer!

Finally got the tail lights and 3rd brake light painted. I'm hoping to put lights in it one day.

I added a set of Mud Thrashers!

Tested them out today...Not Bad!

Thanks to Bill's Custom RC lights I can hit the trails day or night. These lights are bright and Bill did a great job building the harness! http://www.billscustomrclighting.com/

Those new tires help fill the wheel wells:tmb:tmb The light kit looks great, they must be bright because I can see the red in the grass in the first picture:drool:drool

X2! truck looks great, hope mine turns out as nice!!!

 

[Butter]

Thanks fellas! The light are very bright, I can literally run at night and see where it's going!

The tires have great traction but drive like junk, they are just too soft. I stuffed 2.2 foams in them and it helped with the sagging (low pressure look) but the sidewalls still fold over while turning.

Installed a set of Tomahawk tires on Integy wheels and took it for a night run! They did pretty good in the mud and wet grass, and they flex just enough for this truck.

The new tire wheel combo looks great on that thing:tmb:tmb:tmb

Isn't there to much foam to stuff 2.2 in 1.9's?? You're like the second person I've heard (read) do the 2.2 foam in smaller tires.


btw....Your night pictures are great that thing look so real:drool I may have to lights on one of my trucks:tmb

Thanks for the comments

Before I put the 2.2 foams in I cut the width in half but I left them at 2.2 hight for a little extra support.

I was never interested in lights on an rc until I bought this truck, now I want them on all my rc's. They are very cool and actually work for night running!
