Another truck??? ....
Yup, got another xtruck a while ago, this is how it looks when I first got it in the mail.
http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0565.jpg Then I installed a lift kit and relocated the batteries. (Great for wheelie) http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0662.jpg But I still not satisfied with it, so I deiced to go with 2.4GHz PCB, the xmods PCB just doesn't works for me, very slow response and can't even turn. So I installed the 2.4GHz PCB on it now with the stock mini-z AWD motor. The wheels are Aoshima Super swampers (brand new), Kyosho mulit off-set rims with AM alum. lug nuts. I'm still not happy with the drivetrain, its very rough. I'm planning of getting some bearings, better motor and some GPM for it. http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0448.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0449.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0442.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0439.jpg On/off switch have been mounted on the side of the chassis, so it won't get turn off by the rocks while going off-road. http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0440.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0451.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0456.jpg Comments are welcome. =] |
Very professional looking install. Good to see some quality trucks again
|
nice job.. put a nice f-150 body on that and it will look **** good!
|
nice truck does it have the 4wd kit? I just took the 4x4 kit out of my zmod truck, it has too much power robbing friction for me.
The Xmod pcb is always the first thing to go in all my xmods, but 2.4gz must be really nice. |
Those are the nicest rims i have ever seen where'd you geet them?

nice work on the install 2.4g in an xtruck thats kinda insane :) |
Thanks for all the great feedback guys! At the moment, this truck is only RWD, but I got a NIB 4WD coming soon, also ordered F/R GPM aluminum knuckles, shielded bearing set, atomic ball bearings stock motor, and a model kit. As for what model it is, take a guess. =p
|
is it a.....ford F350 ??? lol
|
Just tell what body your gonna use!!! Toyota heilix? Ford f-350?? Spill the beans
|
I hope it's the Hilux... So it'd be like the Top Gear Polar Expedition Hilux :D

Can't wait to see it! Maybe I'll base my Tamiya Pajero off of this micro one; although that seems a little backwards? Lol. Cheers, Kyle. |
Thanks Kyle, the Pajero model kit I ordered is a 4 door version. Should be in by tomorrow. I got the 4WD upgrade in the mail few days ago and just got my AM shielded bearings and AM stock bb motor in the mail today.

wow looks good. Makes me want to get my truck running
|
Haha, thanks Cody.
Update: Got the model today! http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0476.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0479.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0482.jpg |
DAYUM!!!! I say lift it just alittle bit do some wide fenders and leave it white.
That is just so cool looking and its just sitting on it lol |
^^
+1 But don't "leave" it white... I think a flat white with flat black accents would look badass |
Thanks guys! The pics above isn't mount yet, the body was just sitting on top of the wheels, I'm planning on making this looks like an arctic truck. I haven't make up my mind on the color yet, so if any of you have any suggestion, I would like to hear about it. =]
Update: The start of the wheel well. http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0483.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0484.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0485.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0486.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0487.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0490.jpg It isn't finish yet, to be continue... The start of the front bumper. http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0491.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0492.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0497.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0498.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...s/IMGP0499.jpg |
