Well here is the build of my FORD FW60. On mine I am using Losi 1/10 crawler axles and the stock Eartl rims.

Here are some pics and a video but beware the video will put you to sleep so I am working on speeding the tractor up.

Here is a video of the tractor with the new motor. Much better, now I just need an actual esc instead of the dual switch witch is just on or off.

What did you use for a motor? Did you make the trans shift or just lock it in one gear?

Seems like these Steiger tractors accept being converted easier than the rest.

KLooks good, but now I think it is too fast...

This tractor just has a single speed transmission. The trans is out of an HPI Wheelie King with a stock silver can Tamiya motor. I went a totally different rout to do this as I used LOSI 1/10 comp crawler axles and the HPI trans.

KLooks good, but now I think it is too fast...

In the video the tractor just had an on/off motor controller so it was at full speed all the time and with the trans and axle combo it has plenty of power to go with the speed.

I no longer own this tractor it belongs to another member on the forum
