SCX24 tube chassis Jeep project

[GMCK1500shoptruck]

Stumbled across a 3D printed chassis on eBay and I just had to pick it up…

Gonna try to stay more on the scale side of things, and not spend a fortune on it. Haven’t started figuring out parts yet, lots of research to do…

The paint job will for sure be inspired by my late brother in law’s Wrangler…

Stay tuned for updates. If I can gather up some courage I might try to make a series of YouTube videos on the build…

This was my brother in law’s jeep

And here’s a model I built of it for my sister…

As for this crawler, I think it deserves good parts. Since the axles are going to be a big part of the look I’m thinking of going with the Meus ISO V2’s. I’m also leaning towards stuffing an Injora fat viper in it. Might take a while to gather up all of the parts but I think it will be worth it in the end…

I would def go with the Meus ISO axles, well worth it. Also check out the new Furitek Unity moto w/ built in esc, sweet little motor.
