This is one nice truck.

Thank you very much.

Got the body all painted up green, now to apply some clear coat tonight, once that dry's i'm going to do some flat black trim and the body will be ready to go.

Waiting on a servo winch then i can finish up the eletronic's, Also waiting on my Gold KLR's to get here then she will be ready to hit the trails and some scale comps.
Hopefully that stuff will get here this week "thumbsup""thumbsup"
Dying to get this beast on the trail :mrgreen::mrgreen:

Thank you, yes it is very nice to have a crawler course in the man cave, Sure makes it nice to tune and test. Its more for my crawlers than my scale rigs, but i can still do alittle testing of the scalers on it "thumbsup"

very nice work and truck. What shocks are those and will you run them?

Thank you very much "thumbsup"
Those are Big Bore shocks and yes i will be running them "thumbsup"
Imo i really like the way the big bore shock works on a scale truck, But on my crawler i like the flow of the scx10 shock. I think it comes down to the weight of the truck, I think the scx10 shock works better on a lighter truck, while i think the big bore shock works better on a heavier rig. Just my 2 cent run what works for you tho "thumbsup"

Beautiful tundra man. I'm watching this one. "thumbsup"

 

[trig n tahoe]

Nice course. Little jealous

 

[chevotafun]

Well finally got sometime over the weekend and last night, and got her all painted up and the currie diff installed.

Just need my servo winch to show up and to finish wiring the lights on the body and she will be ready to hit the trails. "thumbsup""thumbsup"

Here's some picture of her pianted

 

[chevotafun]

Well she is all wired up and moving on its own. Just waiting on my servo winch and KLR Golds to arrive, which should be here today or tomorrow. hope to get a trail run in this week with it as long as its not pissing out.

A quick question for you guys, this is my first scx10-2, in regard to the diffs do they require some shiming to get the gears to mess properly?
the currie diffs that i bought off of the for sale section here don't seem to spin nice one way, but spin good the other. thank for your input guys
