Was looking through proline bodies one day and started looking at their 1/10 sct truck bodies and realized they are near perfect dimensions for a typhon 6s so that's where it began! This has turned out to be my favorite build I have done yet I think. It's such a blast to drive as well 😍

Proline dodge ram body
Senton 6s body mounts
Typhon front tower
Alza ultra low rear typhon tower
Typhon shocks (nearly locked suspension because the fenders sit over the tires so I don't want it to compress onto the tire)
@3d-rc.myshopify.com wing mount
8s outcast wing
Grp tires, soft compound
Felony front bumper and rear bumper/diffuser
Hot racing wheelie bar
Tp 2620 kv motor
Mmx8s esc
Running on 4s 7000 mah

I had hoons on it and it was sliding a lot in a fun way and then I put these soft grp on and what a different feeling they are and 4s doesn't making them slide constantly so they aren't wearing super fast. I was actually wheeling and that's why I put the wheelie bar on, which ended up looking awesome anyways

Nice build! What compound of grp wheels are you using? I have found the S7s to have at least as much grip as hoons, and the short run I did with S4s seemed to have even more grip. I just ordered a typhon that I plan to run on the road, and I am wondering if the stock shocks will be good enough that I don’t need to order a set from a limitless/infraction.

The xm3 soft compound. I had ordered it just to try vs hard. But I haven't run hard on this so it's tough comparison but compared to hoons these are so much more grippy. Way more than I would have expected. I think you should try stocks first
