Justin's "Ford F-350 Flatbed" Crawling Hauler...
http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...LATBED/411.png
I have been wanting to make a hauler for while. My inspiration was Microgoat's Rollback tow truck and Freddy Gear Drive's F350 Dually. Body... Axial Axles...
Wheels & Tires... Drive train...Specs...

The body is sitting a bit high, will try to be lowering it about .5".
http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8890.jpg I will be using RC4WD seats. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8892.jpg Not sure if I will be running the Tamiya Semi gas tanks but they look pretty cool. :) http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8887.jpg http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8902.jpg Make some leaf spring mounts out of steel, seems to do the job. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8904.jpg http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8906.jpg Rear axle, might be adding two more helper springs....my scalers are pretty heavy. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8907.jpg I also might be doing a sway bar setup on the rear axle, need to test drive it first before I do that. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8898.jpg Close up shot of the sick RC4WD double trouble wheels. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8909.jpg Rear wheels. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8908.jpg |

Got a bit more work done. Funny thing, after running no mirrors on my scalers, it was kinda fun putting them on this truck.:D

Also dropped the cab about .3". http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8927.jpg Got some F-350 emblems from RC4WD, dang there pretty sweet. http://store.rc4wd.com/F350-Highlift...et_p_1408.html http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...IMG_8909-1.jpg Got part of the floor done. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8937.jpg The cab mounts to the pieces of delrin. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8938.jpg Under shot of the RC4WD R2. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8946.jpg Shot of the drive line setup. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8933.jpg http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...D/IMG_8932.jpg |

Picked up a super long driveshaft setup from gardentrucking.com
http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...ps88c8c075.jpg Swapped in a Dinky RC hilux interior for the seats and took my Ford dash out of my F-350 Truggy. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...ps9f78368e.jpg I wanted it a little stiffer in the rear so I put some shocks in. There some old tamiya TT01 shocks with SCX10 spirngs. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...ps557668e5.jpg Started the bed and headache rack. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...ps33757cb4.jpg The styrene was just for testing, still need to pick up some more .5"x.15" wood from the hobby shop. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...ps833743ee.jpg http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...psa5f4b438.jpg Don't mind the tamiya semi bumper, I will be making a beefy metal bumper later.;) http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...psf9211cd0.jpg |
