Ok guys i have been here a few months now an have been promising pics heres my first big rig conversion i started with a tamiya scania an bought a bruder rig an have had to change a few things to get it to work but it mounted an all the running gear is in i used a single speed tranny from rc4wd an a novak 55t motor an mounted the steer servo to the chassis.. its a shame the bonnet wheel arches arent bigger an i might try an get the cab a little lower... lmk what you guys think..

Nice looking truck. You could change tires to Weidco 72mm - they fit the wheel opening and then dropping the ride height wouldn't be a problem. Would give it the low-profile look.

i like the way it sits. gives it that go any where look. the fact that its a single axle and short really makes the stance look good
