Thanks, It's cool for now man, I'll need to drive it first and see what it's like :D

I've been watching absolutely loads of off-roading videos. extremely popular in Japan. If they sold them here, I'm sure they'd be as popular! barely any moving parts and they sound absolutely ridiculous. Some of the videos of them crawling, make it look like they're being winched! like in this video

Update!

I painted it last year.

Have 2 rear wheel bearings to do now, and all 6 UJ. Might as well do the bearings in the t case and the transmission

Looks really straight that, and what an interesting model.

Did you end up changing any of the ratios?
