MCD Owners???
This'll be a "SHORT" thread...
But I was just curious if any other RCU'ers out there "own" OR "have owned" any of the MCD line of RC's? (besides me
)

I have the MCD Hummer black line with monster tires. Bought from skinners RC when he carried them. The truck is great but they suck as a company. Dave

Someone with an MCD Hummer AND on the East Coast!...
Would love to see some pics of yours. Did it come with the monster tires? I'm currently adding MT's and a custom rollcage to mine.

RE: MCD Owners???
Bryan,
It came with the standard tires, but I bought the larger ones at the same time. The body requires a lot of trimming to make them fit and is prone to ripping out the 3 bottom holes on the sides. Have you found anyone who has a body to fit this truck. The truck itself is like a tank. I have a digital camera just let me know where to send the pictures. Dave

You can either post them here, using the "click here to post" (bottom left of reply screen) or send them to [email protected]
I bought a 2nd MCD 4x4 for parts and used the truck towers from it to raise the body, (no cutting needed)
Your right on the tank though... except for some ball joints.. it just keeps going, where my marder never could!
Question... Do your differentials have ball bearings in them? I was told that some do not... I just tore mine down and found ALL 3 have ball bearing which was an excellent surprise!

The ONLY place I've found that sells parts for MCD is Rossendale Models there in the UK.
