@Doom! inspired me to get back to work on my driver. This is head #3. Kept shrinking the print down til it finally looked right. Painted his body up as well.

Also printed up some fender flares and trimmed the opening to match. I ran out of black filament so I printed them in gray and will just dye them black with Rit dye.

See you got a fire lite under your seat 🤣🤣🤣 Deadpool look awesome WELL DONE BUD👍👍 nice selfie.. those stand with the adjustment arms. Are so sweet 😍😍 and those mud slingers are bad as* man
 
Lookin good bro!
Thanks. I just noticed the C10's come with tires with a better tread pattern, but they are about 1/4" shorter. So I need to find some tires the same diameter but softer with better tread. If I cut the body up on that one my boy is gonna flip out lol. Anyone have any suggestions? I plan to widen the track 8mm and would like some tires that are a bit wider.

Whats the the width on those murders? I will look around for some crawler wheels for ya.. You could always round off the inside edge of them take off that big tip with grinder or dremel.. you could also run without the foam insert..if the tire is a harder rubber take out foam be like letting out the air in a 1.1 scale...

They are about .675" wide and 1.9" diameter with 1.0" bead. But looking for something a little wider, like .800"-.900" or so while keeping the OD under 2".

Looks like the RC4WD Rock Creepers might do.

Oh nice man those look sweet and got some good tread to them as well👍👍👍
I want each of the trucks to have different crawling characteristics. So I think those will be great. The Mud Slingers are really tall. These would be close to stock, but fat. And hopefully I won't have to trim anything, especially the cool looking bumper. I just love the front end on the gray C10. And I am a Ford guy lol.

Yeah, it is probably my favorite Chevy truck. The bad thing is, even the stock tires are close to rubbing. So any bigger tires will require trimming. Any wider track width will likely require a little trimming. So I may end up raising the body a mm or 3.

Hell yeah put a body lift on it.. man do they make longer shocks for it? Like a suspension lift ?🤔🤔

Not sure. Pat said he hasn't found any shocks as good as the stock ones. So I don't plan on changing them. I could always print some shock mounts to drop them down a couple mm.
