This is the start of my Landcruiser/Bushwacker build. I got the TCS chassis, leaf springs and Bushwacker body about 2 weeks ago. I took apart my AX-10 comp truck to use the axles and tranny for this build. This is what I have so far. Its not much. I wanted to get some weight on the chassis to check how soft the suspension is. The Slash wheels are just for mockup (thanks Jason), I plan to use some 4.25in tall 1.9 tires. Posted Image Posted Image Posted Image Posted Image Posted Image |

I think the leafs are going to work well. Suspension flexes pretty smooth. Hopefully they hold up well. If not I will do a 4 link. |

The blue I have chosen should be a little darker that the Factory FJ blue. The beige does look good though. |
