First build noob here!
I'm currently running a 1st gen Toy in local scale endurance and G6 events and now want to create a replica of my full size crawler that I have been driving/building/driving/building for a few years.
Current Rig
My 1:1 to be replicated
Parts gathered so far
This build might take me me a minute to complete since I have never done bodywork or custom tube work. I'm still researching those skills.
Parts List: (8/24/14)
Complete Mojave Body Set for Trail Finder 2 (Yellow)
Mojave Grill and Dash parts tree (Black)
Axial Corbeau LG1 Seats
RC4WD Highly Detailed Interior Set for Hilux, Bruiser and Mojave
RC4WD T-Rex 60 Front & Rear Plastic Complete Axle
Axial Beadlocks
RC4WD 1.9 RoxLox tires
GCM Cross Canyon Combo Kit
GCM Axial Transmission
My 1:1 is 4-linked in the rear with leafs up front, might be three linking it this winter so not sure if the scaler will be leafed in front to begin with?
It has King coil overs which poke into the bed a little so I will replicate
that as well as the tank relocation between the frame rails/behind the axle.
My Axial beadlocks are close to the black steelies on my full scale so I'll just make new lock rings to match the it.
Not sure if the 1.9 tires will look right when finished so I might end up with 2.2's.
Looking for:
Jeep spare tire swing gate,
Subaru WRX hood scoop,
US Military ammo cans, the tall mortar cans,
Grant steering wheel,
Scale speaker grills, 6x9 and round.
Any helpful pointers, links, etc.. are appreciated!
ps: this will mostly be a shelfie/hood poser.
