Well christmas has come and gone again. This time santa aka dad got me the axial rc crawler. The bug has bit me and this thing is going to get modified for some fun def needs to get a ranger or bronco body. But this thing is sweet it is just like a truck only shrunk in the wash gonna post some pics later this thing is pretty sweet

Sounds great, hurry up with the pictures.

Definitely need pics! I'm thinking more and more about one of these.

ok computer has been wacky last 2 days, and now my photobucket is acting up.
But if you google axial scorpion rtr, thats what i got. thing is pretty sweet with tons to upgrade on it first thing i am ditching is the plastic 3link set up for an aluminum kit i just ordered, but they make everything for these which is super cool. next i want to find a ranger or bronco ii body, can find plenty of early bronco bodies which i just may settle with. but more updates in a few days when all gets here and hopefully pics of mine.

We know what they look like but we want to see yours. It's like everyone knows what a ranger looks like but every ones different.

 

[dusto2]

Ok here they are, also last night ordered new aluminum links for suspension and steering. Going to do more later this is just to start,next is going to be softer coils, spool in front diff rear already has it, and more from there.
so here ya go

hey its cool man no worries, i know what ya mean we all know rangers but everyones is just a little different.
but these little trucks are addicting i want to mod everything now after checkin out a bunch of different sites

 

[EERNGER]

Nice!

 

[dusto2]

thank you just ordered a few more things, extra tires and rims for crawling so i got fast light tires and heavy crawlin tires

Nice truck! it's fun and addictive -it won't be too long before you will be able to justify an R/C truck that you have put over a $1000.00 into with a straight face I have an E-maxx with a brushless motor and 14 li-po batteries that approches 60 mph (real mph NOT scale).I might be better off if I did drugs or drank!

 

[dusto2]

thanks man ya realy on the 1000 bucks i was talking to the hobby shop guy and he said he ahs that much into his and i kinda snickered a little. But now i realize its possible havent even had it a month and i already got about 300 with new links tires and other parts. next might have to be a brushless motor and some upgraded gears and stuff. new picks of the mods i did so far will be up tomorrow, this thing flexes pretty good now
new rear 4link and high clearance arms, alloy driveshafts, front 3link with high clearance arms, and not pictured new aluminum links for steering, flexes pretty good now

ok these are the new tires and rims cleaned and paint came with crappy chrome rims and blue locks so they got painted as so
