That is the "Ron Crawler" they raffled off on RC crawler awhile back, I bought it from the winner for $600 because he wasn't a shafty guy. Here are some specs
Boyer Chassis
15 1/2" WB
TXT axles locked
Revo shafts
E Maxx tranny
19t with 3.8:1 and 9/72 RR steel gears
Airtronics 94359Z servos front and rear ( I changed out the Hitech junk that was on it)
SR esc
JR XR3i radio
Traxxas short shocks for now, still experimenting on that mod.
40 series Moabs XL's on Proline XL beadloc rims (comp set up)

The Nylint tires and rims are for looks and bashing, I also have a set of LST's on narowed TXT rims with rock rings.

How did you get the Nylint rims mounted since they are 14mm hex? I have 2 sets under my desk I need to do something with. The walmart here was remodeling so I got 3 sets for $10 so I couldn't pass them up lol. Thought I recognized that tuber. Did you repaint it or did the winner?

Dude · Apr 2, 2006

I had to repaint the hood after I took the sticker off.

To put Nylint tires and rims on a TXT axled rig you need this

you will use the small hexs that are inside of a Clod tranny, it's a direct bolt on.

Sweet now I can put these things to use lol. Thanks alot.

Dude · Apr 2, 2006

My first crawler I had back in 04, I sold it. It was a TLT with a "scaler" type look.

ManiacMagoo · Apr 2, 2006

Thats a nice Jeep. Did you use flat paint on the outside for the soft top window?

Dude · Apr 2, 2006

Nope, that was just the sticker, it just looks like flat black in the one pic.
