  1. Man.. Victor, this is going to be some build, watching.
  2. I have wanted to do a twin turbo, but a little unsure how to go about it, so I will be watching closely to steal some ideas😜🤩🤪
  3. Oh I like where this is going. You adding the intercooler for the turbos on this build?
  4. Impressive building, those battery boxes are top notch.
  5. Ron, that is so true, brings importance to reaching out to a skilled printer.
  6. I am running into this more and more, most notably parts from eBay or Etsy from individuals. Although some model kits have issues with their scales as well.
  7. Yes sir, kind of a combination of front springs (adjusted the height and the side to side difference as well) adjust and rear suspension adjustments and all the wheels touch down together.
  8. Well done, outstanding build and well detailed. 🏆🏆🏆
  9. Thanks Jeff, we will see where this goes, as you know my builds are always open to change 🤣😂😜
  10. Thank you Ron for the tip, received the parts from Moldel Truck Builders Forum. The front fenders are perfect fit, also picked up the cab skirts which should add to the lowered look I want to go for.
  11. Picked up a set of battery boxes from Model Truck Builders forum, very well built. But I am still deciding if they are too big, keep looking at box art and they look big there as well………maybe ok……or maybe not.
  12. Was just thinking that, man you got some serious pressure ……..and we are all watching. You got this.
  13. Such an impressive build and a great engineering feat as well.
  14. Thanks for looking guys. The fixture I am using is from Auslowe and is very key to getting everything aligned, don’t want saggy fenders. The red and green stands come with the fixture plus some shims based on tire height. When you order the fenders (they are resin cast and require some cleanup), they come with the aluminum rods, frame mounts, and some really delicate fender mounts. They are time consuming to prep the fenders, define where the rod crosses and then assemble in the fixture. I’ve got about three hours so far in them. But the added fenders really bring some life to the build.
