Jeep YJ RcModelex

I couldn't let it escape, with that decoration it reminded me so much of him...:






and this is what I received, this afternoon I will start with it, cleaning the inside with ultrasonics, regreasing, 2-3mm more wheelbase, 8274 winch and new fusion 1800 electronics and 45kg SRT servo

Nice model.
Twenty years ago i almost bought a real one like this. But all the used jeeps, 14 or so, were having troubles underneath. What remained were hobbycars with always something to wrench on. I passed that choice. They had a tough life. But i loved the idea of having this model.

Jeep is only worth it if you live in the US, I sell Jeep parts in Spain and besides being expensive, the cars are not good, although I prefer a Jeep than a garbage LandRover ,of which I also sell parts

Thats right. My brother had two Grand Cherokees, and bought used if he needed to replace a worn part.
But the growl and thunder out of that V8 was irreplaceable
Now he had two volvo's XC90 and says it to be ten times more trustworthy. But a lot less spirit in that car.

It is already checked and oiled, the truth is that it came in excellent condition, a great seller. And after trying things, it definitely stays with that electronics, I thought it was a weaker servo but no, it's good enough.
The 8274 winch could perhaps make room for it but it is very tight on its bumper and the 9.5ti doesn't fit either, so it stays with the one it is.
The shock absorbers leak oil, like all those models, but they have been checked and work very smoothly, I adjust them to my liking and otherwise I would say that the car is ready to ride.
Today I will put some matching lights on it and as you can see in the photos I already put some stickers and decorations.

Nice Jeep! How is the front side of the body locked to chassis? I have the same body, used magnets at the front side, but these magnets distort the feedback signal of the AXE motor... So I need a alternative method....
