just lower the gearing and slap some kongs on it

this is annoying me now, that is not a serious crawler kit, you are not able to go out and buy a kit for an emaxx and make it a serious crawler, so stop being lazy and build it yourself, terrible...

He needs the info to by the stuff and he doesnt have any info so we are giving him all of the information he needs.

Well, there are 1000 ways to build a crawler. Best bet is to look at a lot of chasis and I recomend lookin at videos not pictures! I could pretend that my mini t was a crawler in a pic! Do a search on www.rcpics.net for "Mud Cow" or "JK" He has a great crawler...

and here is mine... [link]http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/Another_Video_of_my_Clod%25%25%25_%3B%29_The_Resiv oir_With_my_new_55t%27s/m_2655567/tm.htm[/link]

Good luck with it! It's a blast! G.

nothing with indeoendent suspension is a crawler.

I have a e-maxx and all I am building it for is to crawl I am not done with it yet but it crawls okay

right now I am cutting my tires to make a more aggresive tread pattern

hate to burst your bubble, but ive seen stock TXT's beat the crap out of "crawling" emaxxs, but i do have to say, emaxxs are fun, you go up to a rock and launch it off, and get up the pile 50 times faster, then fall all teh way down haha

Yeah i here yeah

Here is some pics of alot of crawlers.

Hey guys, I gotta give ya a thumbs up for making a crawler out a 'pepe or EMaxx. When you really think about it, 75% of all rock crawlers is usually a rolled 2wd Ford f150 that somebody made run with duct tape and baling wire. Actually I think it's more fun to go rock crawling in a two wheel drive just to see if I can do it. [8D]

One more thing, anybody who's willing to mod his vehicle for crawling, no matter what kind of vehicle it is, is welcome to pull up a chair and sit at my campfire and help themself to my cooler.

Well said...

haha word up! i like the crawlers forum for mainly one reason, its where you will find the most true customized rides. its cool to see peoples different wsys of creating their own monster. whether they perform or not, that thinking outside the box is nothing but original.

Hey Archer, wheres your cooler at?
spool/spool B/L.
Ahh, Telluride, I get it...

Cool ride,

Pull up a chair. [8D]

hey who ever posted that emaxx, those axles are locked! and as for 75% being fords that are two wheel drive...YOU WISH, so who here ACTAULLY rockcrawls 1:1?

i crawl 1:1

i used to before my old truck broke down and now that i bought a big silverado no way im gonna risk messing it up lol. anyone that knows rock crawling knows very few poeple actually use fords. their frames and engines generally cant stand up to the punishment. Jeep will always lead the 1:1 world.

while jeeps due rule it is only cause they are a great stock rig that can easy be modified yota rigs are offen also modified just not as cool as a jeep.

sbj

ps fords are cool they just dont make good crawlers not many full size rigs do but they will make good trail rigs

actaully ive seen a K-5 blazer be turned into a GREAT rockcrawler, (fourwheeler mag i forget waht month) but i the best rock rig, is the one with portal axles, a small aluminum block chevy, dana 60 front and rear, np 205 transfercase, and some 39 boggers...

k-5 is like my dream car heh, i love the way those thigns look lifted. plus they have a bigold v-8 in them.

i have a friend juan who has a k-5 blazer or what used to be one turned in to a crawler does great just looses paint every once and a while. also depends on the trail

sbj


atvrider was it portal axles or dana 60's? and why a np205 the final ration on that is like 1.98 not good at all for crawling my stock jeep has like a 3.27 in it and with the one i jut goit off a rubicon it will be 4.10.

thats nice maxxa

Rock crawler = Trailer Queen

4x4 = Drive it there & drive it back(unless you rolled it).

I agree that rock crawler tech is great for a trail rig, but real rock crawling is a short trail nowhere.
Find a long trail & go somewhere!
I do. Posi/posi, 4.56 and NOT stock axles.
Don't laugh [:@], it gets to the top with the Jeeps(they don't respect me).

haha YOUR A REAL 1:1 driver!!! few ok my dream set up for real this tmie ok it will prob be a 72 blazer, with only partial frame left, the rest will be all tubing, this way i can pink off and dove tail the rear and same with the front, now engine will be that 350 small block with a EFI of course, now Trans: a TH350, transfer case would be a NP203 /205 with a doubler kit, now axles: front Dana 60 with a detroit locker, 35 spline outer axle, warn hubs, high steer with hydrolic assist, rear: Full float 14 bolt with anohter detroit locker Ring and pinion 5.13:1 wheels whould be 17X10 Allied beadlocks and rubber would be 40 goodyear MTRs....plus osme other doo dads, and hopefully this will beocme a reality, since im already working on it!!!
