commment are welcome

woah those black rims, the ones with spokes are beutiful they almost brought tears to my eyes...where did you get them i'm still in awww.

nice looks like one of mine...i am likng the first 2 wheel choices...good luck with the project

im diggin the solids

nice project you have there but you do know that's an xtruck chassis...just because there might be some micro-t pieces in there doesn't exclude the fact it's an xmod...not tryin to be mean...ohh yeah i like the 2nd sets of rims....

i now there are nice you can get them at atomicmods those ones or mini-z awd wheels
but i think i know what ones i am going to use

i think so too thnks


i do not know about the soilds but they look ok





thanks
yes i do know that it is an xtruck
and i am going to put micro-t shocks on it because they are very smoth
and i nener said that it was not an xmod

looks great, definatly extend the chassis so the wheels line up with the wheel wells. I like the solid black. Do you know the paint scheme yet.

thanks in think i have that problam salved i will update in a day or 2
i have no clue on the paint right i have beeen brain storming but have not come up with anything that i liked

I think he was referring to why you posted the topic in the mini-z and micro-t section. Anyways nice project. Sits a lil too high for me.

needs some bigger tires for the amount of lift, other than that, sweet truck..

as said befor that the body is going to stay b/c i do not have the motor in yet and it might need to be higher or lower


oh and can a mod please move this projet to the xmods project
i am sorry about that was not waching

thnks

ok got an update i picked the rims
i am useing and lowered the
body and fixed it so that
it is lined up with the wheel whells

hmm,,, top i think. although bottom would make the steering more precise, it would look kinda funny with a box hanging under the truck (unless you make several boxes as scale under-truck toolboxes)

I did that with my Hilux! Except it was on the left, and I used an upside-down stock steering rod

it is on top but that would be cool i may do that after the comp it
is going in

ok i got an update

i got the servo motor and the one for sterring
mounted and i got a vid of it working i am useing
my mini lst for the sevro in the vid b/c the board is not
hoked up yet i just orderd the parts that i needed and it shuold
be in soon


ok pic time and vid!
