Chubaka's Ford F450

[Chubaka]

It's so clean!!!! That simply will not do sir!

Might have to do. These tires syck in the mud I'm sure. They are almost bald on the rear thanks to my 10.ii.

The tires are from a tamiya semi truck.

I'm looking at the 5th wheel ball and a hitch. I'm looking at bumper ideas too. I'm gonna try to clear the lights with alcohol for the light buckets. I have a locker for the rear and am looking at yanking the front dog bone.Time to dust off the 3d printer too for dome accessories.

I thought about a nitro engine just to feel it pull! I still might.

To clear the lights use nitro fuel. It actually works. The link below has an aluminum hitch mount for the bumper and I believe aluminum bumpers. They have an eBay shop also.

@majin can talk Gooseneck. I hope yo be able to be in that club soon. I'm actually looking for my drive cup to do some 4wd mudding. It's been rwd 99% of its life. If you do yank the bone, pull the cup out of the tranny. It slides in. The axle one can stay as it's bolted on the inside of the pumpkin.

My experience with lockers, the steel lasts longer then aluminum. And your axle will spin in the steel one day.

@majin. Might wanna grab a spare for when yours goes. You got heavier gripper tires than I.

Pretty soon I'll be on 19's with some real tires. Then the mudding begins.

We all learn our lessons. Some harder than others.

I cut the esc plate to fit a second battery tray. Need an additional brace kit for the other tray but it is functional. Just happens the left battery is in the cab and the right battery is in the bed with the light controller.

Mine was from spinning out pulling a 35IBS dolley. It shaved the plastic lip.

I dated a wookie who shaved her plastic lip.

I wasn't sure which was more inapproriate so I left both for ya.
