Re: Front drive axle
In the 2nd to last pic, look at the left side of the Globeliner and the left side of the King Hauler, that's approximately the difference. It's wider.

Re: Extra channels
Are you going to use this to control the entire model or just the tracks? Seems a bit of a hassle just for the tracks, you'll need a laptop and your transmitter.

Tire wise, I'd suggest the Tamiya BFG's for a nice scale looking smaller tire. Although, the bigger tires might look better being they...

I'll be making V2 here at some point. I sold that body (HPI Bronco) in favor of a ProLine Bronco with full hard top.

I think I'll try X-Acto-scribing...
