He posted in the truck forum, so maybe he meant front truck rib tires? Well, proline stopped making the edge tire for a good while now and yup, jconcepts carvers are out of stock everywhere. Depending on how loamy or loose your dirt conditions are, holeshots or double dees work well as fronts and i...

The JC would work but they are out also. I may have to give some rear treads a try I guess.

Looking for some 2.2 stadium truck rib tires today and nobody makes them anymore (or they are "out of stock"). Any suggestions for a set of fronts?

how did you do your front hex conversion....if in fact that is what Im seeing?

car is coming along, still looking for some yellow rpm 4-40 nuts and rear bumper

I was wondering what options or mods anyone has done to achieve modern wheels on their xxx buggies.

its been a blast building, thanks to everyone for you help and imput.

well there has been a long gap for update pics, but I have been running this for a couple weeks now and really enjoying this, it does well against the modern cars and I couldnt be happier running it. I have a spec 17.5 system in it.

Hi all, putting together a B3 and wanted to see some shock ideas. Im really happy with the 12mm shocks on my "updated" c tub. Has anyone went this direction with their b3s?Becuase I dont have any shocks, Im leaning toward 12mm. Your thoughts......

what material is this tower?

Ok, so I've had some time away, busy busy. Im toying with the idea of putting 12mm associated big bores on this buggy. The problem Im running into is the rc10t front end. the buggy fronts are too short for this tower/front end. Has anyone tackled putting 12mm big bores on this type of front end mod?

Ok, so I need to work on rear springs to get the back end to squat a little better. I have the rpm front tower and rear tower that uses b6 wing mounts.

Here is one of mine, with Dynotech arms and the Factory Works/RPM front tower. That is a JConcepts Detonator Worlds body. It and the regular Detonator bodies have a recessed section on the front that trims perfectly with the RPM tower. Screenshot_20220924_214710_Samsung Internet.jpg This is another...

I got those but I hate to cut up this body so much......

ended up finding outdrives for my used trans, starting to come together, decided to go with the gt front end. not sure how this will work with the body.
