Dang I like that Mini Z Monster Truck. Hows it drive?
What you need to do is take a whole bunch of pencils, paper, note books, books and anything and make a 4x4 course on the floor for that Mini-Z. That would be so sweet to try and go through it slow.
I gotta get me one.
EDIT: Is the Mini-Z truck waterproof any?

those are no-brand MT wheels and tires that were stashed away in a corner at a LHS. but they came in white so i painted them black.
over the weekend i also trial fitted wheels and tires from my wild willy 2 and i think this is the nicest combo i've come across so far...whadda you guys think. thery're not as tall as the black ones but they're much wider, so that'll help with the stability of the TLT.
oh and BTW...my TLT's in pieces again....gonna do some custom work on it....hope i don't screw up the truck, i will post pics once i'm done....wish me luck guys!!!! i need all the luck i can get!!!HAHAHAHA.

it crawls over my daughter's story books and stationary with ease....for once i'm not nagging at my kid to pick up her stuff from the floor!!!

Those WW2 wheels look good too!
And good luck on your project! Look forward to picks!
Maybe you should start your own thread on the project?

That looks nice, I'd love to see the TLT with the black wheels and a Dakota body.

I meant "...and the Dakota body..."

Very nice! Do the WW2 wheels/tires bolt on with no modifications? If so, I may see if I can order those for mine!
You wouldn't have the Tamiya part# for the WW2 wheels and tires handy, would you ?

I did a little research on the Tamiya website & found the part numbers. Looks like only the rear wheels have the hex fitting (Willy is only RWD I guess), so if those just bolt on, I might just order two sets of rear wheels...

yeah the ww2 rears will fit in no mods...it will increase the width too, wider tires and the wheels have wider offset(correct term?)
i've placed an order with the LHS two days after getting my TLT...

I already have two WW2's and cant wait to try this.
Since we are going to be racing TLT's this will be of greast news to some of the drivers.
Take care.

Here are the rear wheels for the Wild Willy 2 at Tower : http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...19&FVPROFIL=++ - they fit bolt on, but since the WW2 is a 2WD, you'll need the rear wheels x2 for your 4WD TLT-1.
