Smoke&Mirrors Off Road ZZSE

Post by Smoke&Mirrors »

This is something I started working on and retired to a box for a little while and I'm ready to try to polish her up a bit. Tell me what you think or if you have any ideas for mods. I know I'm going to hobby shop to get one of those 4-prong-3-wire connectors since I can't get to the stock charging tabs.

Yeah pretty cool, but I think he's right...maybe a roll bar, some nerf bars and a brush gaurd. But its still good the way its is, just if you get bored or have time... :???:

Yeah, I actually have a Jeep body that I have painted a little to look just like my real Jeep. I plan to mount that. I'm really trying to make this one look like the real deal. :eek:

Right now, not too well. I need to redo the back end. The steering is fine, it's just that the back axle and gears don't mesh so well. I just need to use some JB Weld and she should be fine.
