I was wondering if should change tires, and after trying the other sets i have, not including some others that aren't pictured, i decided that if i were to use claw dawgs, or any other 2.2 larger than that i would have to lift the body, a lot, and probably 4 link it which would kill the scale look and purpose of the hl to begin with, so i will probably just keep adding some scale touches and paint it some other color.

Truck looks good dude. I say stick with the goes though. i thing that they look the best. "thumbsup"
 
1.9 ?

So after running the 2.2 beadlocks for a while, i decided to give 1.9 another try, this time with mudslingers, i like how the 2.2 made the truck look beefier+the added weight of the wheels down low was great, but i really like the scale look on 1.9 with the slingers, can't make up my mind, lmk what you guys think"thumbsup"

I switch off, I run Geo's when I'm in rough terrain because the trucks is more capable. When running an easier trail, I run BFG's because I like the looks better with 1.9's.
 
hey carlos it looks AWESOME !! with the 1.9 MS, really nice touch just put all the tires forward and will look better i think... and what about make a steel bumper?

now you just need to take some pictures in the mud :) lol and a video of course!



saludos amigo y deberias poner este build en el foro de www.rcrkmx.com
 
Look what the mailman dropped of...after a month of waiting, man that was slow, but i cna't complain it was only $29.99 shipped from honk kong:shock:.
Guess who is going on a diet:lol:, it's going to be a slim lift from now on.
