it would look a lot better if you could "blend" the two side skirts (on one side) together to make them both look as if they were one, but you would also have to repaint it which would suck in a way, just a suggestion though

i plan too....i have some good modeling putty that will hook it right up. yeah i really wasnt looking forward to the paint job because i really like the blue. but every time i looked at the truck all i could see was the batteries...lol

thanks for the input.

your welcome, no problem man, I like the blue that comes on the F-150 body too, I would try to repaint it that color if possable!!!

That is one giant truck there.

looks ok not bad keep it up

[Red10152]

looks *** to much body lift to many gaps

[REDisFASTER]

Looks good! It would look great with upsized tires! Great job man!

[librarianliam]

it looks ok... but you need to bring the front and rear down to the same level as the side...

i dont know about sticking it to him...to her on a regular basis....she still feels good despite having a gap like the grand canyon.


on a serious note......what is the best motor to push the trucks with modified big tires?

[REDisFASTER]

Well, if you're not trying to make a speed-demon truck, you could try the servo mod:

Bigger tires and paint(to cover up whatever you used to bond the material) should give you a hot truck.

that dude is a mod king...i hope mine will turn out a 1/4 of what his is. i think im going to lower it an 1/8 " or so, not too much and maybe get some new magnets for the stage 1 motor. doesnt the stage 1 have more torque than the stage 2?
