Miami
Got the body at the local hobby shop, its the HPI 7178, 2002 Dodge Ram QC
HPI says the truck is 1/8th but IMHO, more like 1/7th scale. This HPI Ram body is intended for the Savage, the Savage XL is a bit larger so not sure how good it will look. May have to modify the front end to allow for the front bumper/skid plate.

Damn I think I should wheel these and not my ram. To much abuse for my truck. The last few weeks my dad has been telling me to save my money for a newish truck. What are these things called?

To indy My point Its a lot cheaper to fix one of them than my truck. Tomorrow I get to see if I need new hubs which I think I do. I didn't event get 56k out of them. Guess it comes with back spacing and big tires. Oh well.

So do you buy your parts online or at the store? If you get them online give me a link please. I can see the saving in hub's and ball joints.

Wanna play, you gotta pay! Bigger the toy, more it costs. Not like you really have to point that out to me of all people lmao.
