tlt build under $200

baja-toy · Sep 2, 2006

hey check this out, i wanted to biuld a tlt but i didn't have the money or know how to build one. now ive got one it only cost me about 170. it's not completly finished i still need some axle spacers so if anyone has some for sale i'll buy them. any tell me what you think.
oh and if you like the beadlock rings i can make you a set for ten bucks

I gotta say thanks to 4WS Samurai for giving me the axles and electronics for free

nice, looks like you got a good deal

Baja Toy - That's a good looking rig. Did you buy it for 170, or build it? I'd like to see some body off pictures, and maybe some bigger shots, and some more details. If you did this for $170, you should be really proud of yourself. Most guys end up $300 - $500 into a TLT crawler, and another couple hundred for a Super. Great Work!

BTW - what wheels did you use for the beadlocks, and are they functional?

i bought the chasis for 70 but the the rest i did my self. the beadlocks are just for looks on this set i'm working on some real ones but it's hard to find the time.
i'll have some mor pics up soon. i haven't really got to try it out yet cause my battery charger died so i hope by next week it will be good

and ugh i want someone to give me an axle lol u suck and did u buy the body or did he give it to u and how do u get people to just give u stuff

baja-toy · Sep 3, 2006

i put up a post that i wanted to buy a tlt and that i would pay up to 300 and this guy said i could have his. it was a little ruff. i only used the axles and electronics and i'm going to need a new speed controler and reciver but hey it was free so i'm pretty thankful for that. the body i got was from another guy that i bought the tube chassis from
