Very nice. I see that there is a bit of glue residue. Maybe you can clean that up a bit. Other than that I love how it crawls.

Yes they do get dirty but they have a nice paint job thou. One thing is a nice paintjob that got dirty from being used another thing is having a messy paintjob.

Tell me darkmagic, in reality, who spends big bucks to get their truck painted, then go off roading? I really dont need to/want to go spend the time to paint this, then get is screwed up when it tips over on occasion.

If you think the lifted trucks with nice paint jobs you see in the mags, get dirty, your hugely mistaken. Only a small handfull of them actually do The most dirt they see is where ever they got their picture taken.

And its not even a messy paint job, its paint that got on it from something else

not digging the hummer bumper



don't need dogbones for the lift. just use REAR dogbones with FRONT stubs at all 4 corners. that's what I'm running in my crawler.

alloy diffs would be a good idea too.
