    The body is from a cheesy RC made by Dickie. Had to search online to find one.... usually eBay or Amazon has them.

    It's getting there!!!

    Definitely going to need to lower the body, but only about 1/2". It looks like the tires tuck inside pretty good when flexed so i might not have any rubbing issues.

    lol i know, its great! I saw them out of the corner of my eye and knew instantly that I had to put them on it.

    Haven't driven it yet with the new shocks & tires. I'll probably play with it a bit tomorrow. Only thing left to do (other than paint) is to try and change out the motor pinion gear to get some more wheel speed.
