Hey Cooper.....looking forward to seeing this build !!! Be nice to see another big haul truck on here , considering our trucks are different in scale yours being a bigger truck 1:1 scale they will almost be the same size as models!!
You will be pleased with the power of the banebot motor/gear box , very strong!!! The power they put out is almost a bit scary...lol...just remember there is only one ball bearing supporting the 1/2" output shaft, try not to put to much axial load on it, they recommend limiting the torque to only 35 ft lbs but with the big tires and no other reduction you may need it all.(You still might need more reduction to bring the speed down and the torque up, at 70-90 RPM that thing will haul a$$ )

What size are the tires? What motor did you get on the gear box ??

Really like the tires you made!!! Looking great!!( Hey, buddy, pal ,I could use a set...LOL)

Keep up the nice work!!!
