The Journey: Looking Back at My RTR to Custom Conversion

By: Tim Gluth

After a year of ownership, my Axial SCX10 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon RTR has undergone a number of changes and updates to make it fit my personal taste.  While this is a great vehicle out of the box, I’ve given it a number of upgrades.

From custom aluminum links to a fresh coat of grill paint, new wheels, shocks, and more, my once-stock rig is now a custom machine.  Here’s a quick visual look back at how it has changed…and I’m not done yet.
