Whats up guys, just wanted to share my build. I started out with an Axial RTR and bought a 2nd body. Had a rack built, created my own limb risers, added a Warn winch, painted the grill glossy to match mine. Hood paint is matte. Waiting on my special order Method wheels. Just thought you would get a kick out of it. Some pics of the 1/1 too

Skibovr6,

Great job on your scale "mini me" JK. Your hard work shows.

Want to build one to match this with the trailer too:

Very nice, the trailer and Jeep match !

Where did you get the trailer ?
What purpose does the trailer antenna serve ?

Trailer started out as a 1950 M-100 Military trailer, then just built a lift, hubs, fenders, Hitch, and Tailgate. Antenna really serves no purpose, if you look at old Military photo's they (the Military) would mount a antenna on the trailers for their radiio units. Just thought it looked neet......

I would love a Axial built to match my rig. But I hav'nt built any scale model stuff in over 30 years.......

You should look into it With the RTR out there and aftermarket stuff it would be pretty easy

I might just do it. I have checked a couple of local Hobby shops that deal with the Axial scx10 RTR, and the prices are close to the same (within $10-$15 of each shop).

My problem is I would like to add some options like a Hardtop, Bumpers front and rear, Full Fender Flares, and Larger Tires.

My brother suggested that I might just try to find a local RC Club that would be willing to help in adding the above options to a RTR JK...... I am really at a loss in what to do..........
