Build Thread Tamiya F-350 Build

You should get a set of Tundra wheels for it, they would look a little closer to the wheels on your 1:1

I think he's already getting them wheels, because he said on another thread that he would buy them off someone (I think it was Slowngreen, but I'm not sure). But the person had already sold them.

man looks sweet!! now you just need the step bars and the little front guard like on your 1:1

was in NCnitro that was doing the tuber? whatever he was using should be close to the right size.

 

[NCNitro]

That looks awesome Alpine! way better than a dusty box in the closet The color is dead on to your truck. Great looking rig man.

 

[Rolex]

EXCELLENT!! That's a real beauty, especially when compared to the 1:1 copy. Great job.

 

[Bartek]

wow,I will have to buy one of those!

 

[alpinehyperlite]

After a few runs, i still gotta tweak the steering quite a bit, its just acting up. I am going to bring it back to 2ws, just need to figure out why the front wheels are binding up. Might be the servo saver, might just go without it.

 

[Bartek]

you gonna use it only some times any way so nothing bad will happen to servo,I mean who would have time to spend whole day walking by a car going from the bedroom to the kitchen...not me for sure

 

[ThunderTiger]

that aint the point bartek and you know it !!!


Great build alpine, nice to see it finished. Loving the paint !!!!

 

[Rolex]

Give that paint some time to cure, and once it's waxed and Armoraled, it will be fine.

 

[abadk9420]

Wow Alpine that came out real nice, you should get some pics of it out in the sun...

 

[Bartek]

did you do anything new in the build?
got any new pictures?

 

[alpinehyperlite]

Sorry havent been keepin yall posted with it, Havent gotten any outside pictures yet, i have run it, just forgot the camera. Good news. NEW SHOES:

"They only 1.9's but they clean though."

 

[savon]

That thing looks great with those new wheels.

 

[alpinehyperlite]

Next thing, deannodizing the shocks. Looks dumb red. I also wana find some smaller ones. Those stockers look HUGE.

 

[NCNitro]

New shoes look just like your 1:1. So you gonna put the roll bar and light kit on it?

 

[alpinehyperlite]

Negative on roll bar. Looks dumb. Wana make a bull bar like i have on the 1:1, but have no idea where to start for it...... also want to get the light kit, but havent really looked for one.

 

[NCNitro]

You wanna sell the light bar that mounts to the roll bar?

Have you thought about picking up the bull bar from the tundra?

 

[alpinehyperlite]

Yea, i could do away with the lights. And the bull bar from the tundra would be PERFECT!! Never even noticed it.

 

[NCNitro]

Yeah, I went back to the pics of your truck, and thought the bar looked a lot like the tundra bull bar.

Here ya go.
