I don't have an RC set up but the RC guys are up at my place often using the creek for mini wiheelin. I would be happy to have you guys up to my place. Julio has been up with his RC rigs quite a few times and could share his thoughts of the area.

looks good now all you need is 2.2 tire's to make it look somewhat real. not 44 inch boggers!

I believe those are 2.2's.
You are gonna need some 1.9's or 1.5's with a taller tire.

 

[markw]

Yeah, 2.2's I think are going to look southern with that cherokee body.

 

[DesertRunner]

they are 2.2's! im trying to find 1.9 take offs of a honcho i want all 5 wanna do a swing out tire carrier! i got my 90mm dual rate coilovers today look perfectly scale!

now to start figuring out how to mount the eletronics and battery!

 

[89xjJe3per]

I ment 1.9 doh.

 

[winkosmosis]

You need the 1.55" wheels and tires. If you google "mini chassis rc wheels" you'll find some 1.5" ones that are supposed to work and cost a lot less

[89xjJe3per]

Those are sick!

 

[DesertRunner]

anoyone know the scale on these rc parts? i know a 2.2 looks like a 44" tractor tire near a 1/10 scale car but what about a 1.9 and 1.5?

 

[1990heepxj]

lol everyone would hate my scale ax10 cuz i made a backhalfed toyota body. tubed the rear by copying marlin crawlers real yota back half kits design. got way too much money into my dang rc crawler and rarely use it anymore
