Re: My 1.9 jeep buildoff
Those axles are a lot smaller, are they narrower too.

I had to go with these since the tlt's were too big and bulky. I considered the MRC's but havent seen a set up close, SO I decided if I was gonna get a smaller set of axles, I would take the chance on these since they are quite a bit more scale looking.. The cost of them was hard to swallow, But they are very nice and are the perfect width. I just couldnt justify another $100 just for the rc4wd 4 link mounts, So Im having trouble figuring out how to set up the 4 link mounts on the axles. I wish my jeep was here right now. The cage and doors and bumpers and chassis is getting powder coated so they dont scratch if it takes a roll
Ill make sure to let you guys know when to vote.. Ill be cutting it close with this build but I should have a few days to relax before the voting will begin. As far as I see it, Im a week ahead of schedule.

Re: My 1.9 jeep buildoff
Got some updated pics of the cagework from John Boyer. Man I am very impressed. He went ahead and attached the doors to the cage which I think is a pretty good idea. And right now he is working on the door latch mechanism. He said he will have it finished next weekend.. As soon as I get it back I think I will have less than 2 weeks to finish it if it has to be done march 18th. And to top things off my brother and his fiance are coming here to visit from las vegas on the 10th thru the 16th.. I guess I will be pulling some allnighters.. Red Bull is my friend

I have three colors I am thinking. And Im having a hard time thinking about what color to go with..
All Black, But I think it would take away from all the detail work on the cage.
Bright red, Still not sure about this, but i think it would make the tube work stand out.
Yellow, Sorta like a before and after look from the other jeep.
Any Suggestions?

Well damn,Thats a tie then.. I have two people saying red, and two saying yellow..I think it would be a bad idea to use both colors together on it..lol I will look into the actual paint colors monday.. Im gonna paint it over at my friends auto body shop..
