My first truck with a lifted suspension... Maisto Colorado still a work in progress, but I think it is headed in the right direction. No springs or wire in dampened lift. It has tube axles and large hot wheels tires. I enlarged the wheel wells to allow the wheels to fit and give some room for suspension travel. My main goal was to try to eliminate the bouncy lift and allow wheel travel.
- Looks great! Seems to work good!! I tryed a few different versions right now, but each casting has his own needs! — Schottys_diecast
- indeed... There doesn't seem to be an overall one size fits all approach... yet! lol — FredD
- Exactly. Did you ever watched „mechanicustums“ ? — Schottys_diecast
- I do... very talented and creative! — FredD
- cool — dr_dodge
- holding axles parallell is important, too — dr_dodge
- If they aren't perpendicular to the chassis, doesn't matter if they are parallel to each other? Constraining the motion to a single plane, up/down, without slop is hard on these plastic chassis. — FredD
- I'll reply in the suspension thread — dr_dodge
- Very nice work!! — G_ForceRacing
For Braggin' Wagons at GTR
- Very nice! Love the decals... did you buy or make? — FredD
- Thank you! I made them. Have considered selling custom decals but am so busy I’m hesitant to add another thing to do! — G_ForceRacing
- Great job... mine just dont have that clarity... I totally understand about another hobby! lol too many already! — FredD
- I have Photoshop 7 on my laptop, it’s a fabulous program — G_ForceRacing
- Great job! Looks cool! I have to buy a laptop soon ;) — Schottys_diecast
- nice — dr_dodge
- If you plan on adding photoshop make sure it’s compatable with the operating system. They now do photoshop on the cloud. I own ps7, but it’s not compatible with windows 10. I have windows 7 — G_ForceRacing
70 grams diy nickel plated axles.
- nice! — FredD
- Nice and clean, very sharp! — G_ForceRacing
- diy nickels??? we need to watch this one...lol — dr_dodge
Had a old Lamborghini I got when I was 6. Stripped the paint and gave it a new look with the signature paint. Planning to add off road wheels and a off road look. This might be a tournament project or a passion project.
- nice — Numbskull

- Nice paint sceme — G_ForceRacing
- Scheme :)~ — G_ForceRacing
