nice work but i don't think it will do much, those tire treads stick out further than the chains do maybe a fatter chain is in order?



the rc probably is just too light with all that tire surface area?

I wanted to use thicker chain, but everything is closed, so I have to work with what I have here.



Well the truck does weigh about 15 pounds, but with the long *** control arms, there is no weight over the tires.



I would hate to be hit by a full size version of my toy!! Damn crazy Texans!
