ok well i posted it here cause its not a model and it will be looked at more.
i am building this truck with hpi suspension parts and making a custom frame for it.
 
 
 

the front ^
 
 
 

the front suspension narrowed an inch and at full drop
 

front at full lift
 

mocking up the frame that will need to be made
and rear independent suspension
 

and the rear
 

got the front of the frame cut to shape and the front
suspension mounted to check everything
 

full lift on the front
 

just enough lift to clear the the tire
 

also mocking up the stearing. needs to be narrowed
aswell 1 inch

I did this in high school using a hpi rs4 and a caprice body. Used micro servos on each corner and a 6 channel radio. You need to use ball studs for mini trailer balls and drag the piss out of it!
