Best scaler/crawler question.

[CameronCodes]

My father is the vice-president of the pv4wd off road jeep club and often brings me on the rides with him. I'm wondering what the best scaler/crawler would be to bring with me. I would preferably like one that can have a 2 door 2006 tj body on it.

Anything works, the truck on the left is custom built, the middle is Redcat Gen 7 completely modded, and the one of the right is the wife's Redcat Everest 10.
Never mind the guitars....

I use the Axial SCX-10 as a basis for my 2-door JK:

@CameronCodes you can't go wrong with just about any model from Axial.

Redcat gen 8 is probably the best crawler under $500 out there. I would say get the Gen 8 P.A.C.K. But if you're on more of a budget, definitely go wIth the Redcat Gen 7.

Another vote for the Axial SCX series.

This might help you decide:

Do you know if scx comes with 2 door jeep?

Do you know if scx comes with 2 door jeep?

Specifically a 2 seater cj body?

Do you know if scx comes with 2 door jeep?

No. it has a 4 door jeep body, though.

 

[hamz9561]

There are people that have made CJ bodies for the SCX-10, but as mentioned it only comes with a 4-door. My SCX-10/JK has a Proline body with a modified interior body panel from them as well.

Does the losi ten have any aftermarket bodies?

Does the losi ten have any aftermarket bodies?

Umm, yes, but the ten is not a crawler/scaler.

If Christmas wasn't so close, I would buy that Gmade Sawback. Great looking ride...
