Hi everyone, I need some Ideas for a scale truck that I can drive in the mud. I'd like some ideas of kits I could use as a starting project. All help is appreciated.

I would go for a HPI wheely king personaly. They are relitivly cheap easy to modify and if you got bord of mudding you could always turn it into a rock cralwer. I recon if you put one of prolines tmaxx size bodys on it and a set of RC4WD 2.2 mud slingers it would be great for mudding.

You could go for a TLT but there would be a lot more work involved to get it up to speck and would cost a lot more. Hope this helps

The High Lift is perfectly suited to mud running, especially with 2.2's fitted. You can lock and unlock the diffs from the outside of the axles with a hex wrench, so spinning wheels will not be an issue.

And with 3 speeds, you can choose how fast you attack the mud at full throttle!

I have a highlift, but I hate having so many parts to work with. I would really like something not that complicated, I back ordered the new axial rock crawler, and although it could be a mudder, its just not realistic. I would really like something more scale, but not something with tons of moving parts. If I could a built highlift for about 300 to 325 usd, I would buy it. My highlift

is missing some screws and other parts, but I would trade it with some cash for a complete, used highlift. my highlift was run about 4 to 5 times. If any body wants to trade a built used highlift for my incomplete highlift with some cash, write an entry in this topic.

What about a Tamiya Touareg? Fairly simple.

Thats possible, but I would have to buy a new body,wheels and tires to make it look more scale.
