Shodog Jr. High Lift Hilux

Last night my son and I were up late putting some finishing touches on a high lift Hilux. This was a truck I got in a large RC buy from a tamiya club member. He had been salavating over it the past few months and since I already have too damn many cars any way I decided give it to him for his 20th birthday. In stock form I feel the truck looks too lifted so we modified the suspension to sit lower to give it a more realistic look.

Are you looking to adopt? :lol: He should really be proud of it and I like the color choices as well. The fares really compliment the stance of it. Glad you lowered it, as I agree they are too tall in stock form. Nice Work you two!! 8)

It looks so much better with the "lift blocks" removed. It's motivating me to revisit my 8 year old Hilux project. Recently I bought a set of bead lock wheels from China eBay and a set G made tires.
