The truck is looking nice, I've beenn thinking about painting my shocks to look like monre shocks, then ive been searching some rc Scaler sites to find some 4x4 decal sheets with monre shock decals. No luck so far.

i just bought a Bruder dump truck on a rolling king hauler chassis for my 5 year old son and the guy had this rear frame drop on the dump? I suppose its on another tamiya tractor i dont know. But i had to have it! I cut the frameabout a inch off and used the rear shock hole to hold it on with a self tapping tamiya screw. luckly the holes lined up perfect for this mod.
