Hi everyone, newbie here!
Recently I my mate passed me a rovan Baja 5B with the rovan 29cc engine as he's quitting, so I tend to messed it around with some past failed project of converting the HPI Savage 5T nitro to a Monster truck with Redcat rampage MT wheels and bodyshell due to some reasons.
Realizing FG used to have 2WD monster trucks and runs pretty well, so why not on the 5B!
Here's some pics of progress, and still waiting for front axle shaft pin for installing the 22mm hex adaptor for the front wheels.
Tell me what you guys think? Or had anyone done this before on a 5B platform?
