Both nice looking bodies there 'crash, but I'm looking for something WAY tougher. If you ever read my Maxx thread you know I detest body clips, loathe is probably closer actually lol. After going this far it would almost be cheating (for me anyway) to throw a name-brand shell on it. It wouldn't last 5 minutes and I'd be annoyed about time wasted making body posts...

I haven't posted much in the last few days because I've been out giving it some very thorough torture tests. Happy to report the only issue after 3 days of abuse is a blown lower piston e-clip on the front right shock. What do I say about CLIPS? So the shock is full of silicone but the piston is not doing anything. Easy fix and otherwise I feel like the beast was worth every minute spent :)

Got some good video on the way from like 6 different locations, so I'm working on that at the moment. And even some proof for Jerry that it's 4wd

I don't know what you planned to secure a body to your wonderful creation, but how about some Nylon wing bolts instead of body clips. They can easily be cut to the length you need.



No brain, no headaches.

I told you I would bombard you with body choices

You will need to make your own vaccuform machine and create the Tonka F350 concept truck.
