I have put new tyres on, and got the wheels anodized in black. I have also added some RC4WD mini wideners.
I'm not sure I will keep the New Era wheelie bar, it doesn't look very realistic. and I will probably make the steering BTA at the back when I can afford another one of the small savox servo I have at the front.
If everything goes to plan, work will start on the final body early January and it's going to be VERY special!
Thanks for looking, feel free to make any suggestions :)

This looks like a really mad piece of kit. I think the wheelie bars looks ok as well.

Looks special already! Looking forward to seeing the final body. Just wondering how did you mount the imex dualies on txt wheels I thought they will only mount on imex wheels? Alex

Thanks guys @gravetxt-1 the tyres come with special chrome clod wheels which are the same size roughly as the txt wheels. Just they have a 'lining?' in the center that actually separates the tyres. I glued mine to eachother and it was tricky to get them centered on one another

Apart from the twin tyres on each axle it actually looks very very close to a proper Monster Jam truck. Love the wheels, stance and general look though = AWESOME !!!

May I ask what size are these, height and length roughly? As I am sure pics don't do it justice.

Thanks, my aim is to make it look as close to a real truck as I can. I saw some real ones with duallies but it is unusual I agree. Size wise, it's BIG! I'll measure tonight but I think this is one of the biggest Tamiya kit
