I have to say, this build is what lead me to join this forum and purchase my own xxt project to start working on. Absolutely beautiful.

So cool... Nicely done!

Sweet!
I really like my JRX2

The nylon nuts are from Essentra Components. The 8-32 ones are part number 0700832LN or 0700832SLN. The 4-40 ones are part number 0700440SLN or 0700440LN.

This is the third shell I’ve painted in about a month, took a lot more care with the masking, also any bits of overspray or bleed through were removed with graffiti remover before the next layer of paint was a...

Transmission is installed. Now it's time to start threading tie rod ends... my least favorite part of every build.

But, the tie rods and pins are all TecnaCraft ti eye candy!

What medium did you blast the outdrives with? We used the aluminum oxide media that came with our Chinese knock-off of the Paasche Air Eraser.

Hi Guys,

My restored Redline and Mongoose.

WOW That truck is sick!!!!! nice job
