I am assuming they are next to the same size tire.They seem like the knobbies on the Uber's make them a bit taller but probably look smaller due to such large open spacing between the knobbies.
Hey do any of you guys use those quick disconnect fittings on your fuel lines?The carb on this motor has one of the fittings turned around and that thing is seized in the motor it needs like way too much force to be put on it to turn it so I am worried about breaking it.

Well I have the lightbar installed and working pretty well.I would like a cleaner install but that is going to take designing some brackets and having them made or making them from scratch.Here are a few pics

I got my battery box in today from Haric and it is a really well made and very nice looking box.i had a few issues installing mine with my Beast Rc servo mounts and the Hitec D845 servos but it all went in fine after tinkering with it for a while.i also played around a bit with the servos to quiet down that glitching issue I had with them and everything seems much better now.Here are a few pics of the box and a

The extended cover looks great?? Put a small drop of loctite or lock washers on the thumbscrews to prevent them from backing out on you. I had 1 come out on me. Luckily i found it.

Lock washers it is. I have two hardcase batteries in the mail so we will see how everything goes when they get here.

I don't even want to imagine the craziness that will happen in that build and when you eventually get a Raminator because IT WILL HAPPEN,

@crucialRC No more fancy thumbscrews. They come with socket head cap screws now. Your cover will come with cap screws as well??

Small update just swapped some of the stops on the servo linkage so that they match the theme of the truck.The red originals that came with it were pissing me off.I also threw in the FullForce fuel fittings and some tygon line just to get that out of the way also.I know the fuel lines look messy but this crap motor has the fittings facing the wrong direction on this crap carb so I decided not to chance trying to spin them and just live with it for now.I also scrapped the wrapped body and sent it out to get airbrushed so we will see how that turns out.I sent it off to Greg who is Crucials paint guy so I have a feeling it will be sick when he gets done with it.I may start her up today and at least get some progress done.Here are a few pics nothing big
