So... I got tired of the black bronco. Here are the updated pics. Now i just need people to run with:ror: It doesnt perform as good as the others i have but its a blast to drive.

Tamiya Bronco body, I'm currently building Steel bumpers and sliders and spare tire mount for it. oh and axial TR light kit on the way.

chris is it me or is that a shorter wheel base then the black bronco?

 

[chris4207]

The wheelbase is actually a hair over 10". ( Black bronco was 11.5") I think the wheelbase is still just a little long but it will pass. I used the TR fender flares to make the wheel wells a little larger for the 1.9's. That also moved the wheel wells a little.

still looks good chris may have to do a little trimmin on the flairs but still looks good "thumbsup" is that the green thats on the bug?

Your right, A lot of bodies don't look good. I did trim about a 1/4" off the width of each one, That helped a lot. I also have to limit the shocks a little to bring the ride height down some.

 

[m0d3ds1ash45]

isn't the flair's suppose to be even with the bottom of body? if you look closely?

 

[m0d3ds1ash45]

im sorry chris for callin ya out but i do like is alot "thumbsup"

ah well yeah i noticed they went a little long but at least there not short lol annoys me when people do that



tim-
some extend longer than rocker panels to act kinda like molded mud flaps
"thumbsup"

 

[m0d3ds1ash45]

ahhh never knew that now i know! "thumbsup"

 

[oscodawave]

yupp lol those might be pushing it a little but ive seen far worse if they are only an .25in long in 1/10 scale thats only 2.5in if my math is correct

 

[chris4207]

:ror: The reason there to long... There is only 5 screws that mount those. the last screw is all the way down on the end. Yes, i could have trimmed them off and moved the screw up one hole but then they would be 3/8" to short. What i was thinking was i'm making sliders, I'm hoping they will fill in between those tips and look ok"thumbsup"

 

[m0d3ds1ash45]

Ah now I get it now sweet can wait to see it :thumbsup: and got to find some time to head up to your place and check out your rocks ;-)
