Losi Mini Crawler axles
Losi Mini Crawler trans
Losi Mini Crawler motor
Losi Mini Crawler servo
Mamba Micro Pro ESC
7.4 1900 mah 2 cell lipo
K2-.5 scale chassis
Integy 1.9 scale wheels
RC4WD Prowler 1.9 tires
Speed Way Pal Suzuki Samurai body

When I first started thinking about building this little guy I knew it would have Integy 1.9 wheels on it. With that said, I just had to do the jeepcj578 wheel mod to the Integy 1.9 wheels. Whatcha think ??

I drilled out the center caps on the wheels then screwed 2mm x 12 mm studs into the wheel adapter that come with the Integy wheels, 6 2mm nuts will hold the wheel on the adapter. I used red locktite that will hold the studs in place. I am using CAD to Chrome Toyota wheel nuts that I picked up from RPP Hobby.

Got my nut's all tightened up. :hehe:

those wheels are sweet. nice truck.

Thanks :wink:

Sweet!

Thank you sir :wink:

Looking good chip, I saw the first few pics on RCC a week or so ago and thought it was a badazz looking rig. I really like those wheels, plan to get some for my blackfoot/reign build... Those are the same as the rcmart topcad wheels, right? They look really similar...

Have a good one Chip, you gotta come down to the Dell and check out the waterproof scale/mudders we have made. I have a f350, Zack made a lr3 and B has a defender setup. Lots of fun sinking them!

What paint scheme are you planning, Chip?

Yes James, the wheels are the same as the Rcmt/Topcad wheels.
Red with a black top.

Cool. I look forward to more progress!

Thanks !!! :yes:

The sammy after a little paint.

I have plans of getting the chassis powder coated flat black and maybe very simple interior.
