@@Huntersmith-123 the front actually has a spool on my truck specifically. If you look really closely you can see the wheel nut starting fall off. The axle/hex is spinning but the wheel isn’t because it’s not seated on there properly being loose 😂

@@jimbo4203 I’ll check it out! I got the smaller tires for now since I’m stock width and didn’t want to rub. Originally got the truck to bring it with me when I travel but I’m actually starting to like it a lot and want to do more lol. I may end up widening it a bit and then throw the bigger tires on there. We’ll see how it goes. I’ve got a few parts on order right now that I think will help out a lot.

@@Fprice2013 I have yet to buy the Typhon still and plan on getting that brushless version when I do. My Granite is almost exclusively a dog toy now haha. It just runs around in the backyard for the dogs to chase around. My Mojave I’ve left stock so far because after we go crawling we all break out our Mojave’s and have a little dirt track race for fun. I’ll probably do some reliability upgrades first but for now we are all running stock trucks. I think once we all collectively decide to go brushless then I’ll either upgrade mine or grab a new already brushless model. Funny thing is I actually turn mine down to 75% throttle because it’s easier to control on the surface we are running on. I feel like making it brushless and even faster I’d have to start really getting into better tires and shock tuning. Which is completely fine if we weren’t running stock trucks just for fun

@ yah it’ll traction roll on grass but on the infield dirt it drifts like a dream. Have fun!

@ I agree on the dirt the slide around perfectly. The lot we race in has a bunch of small rocks that would be no issue for a larger truck but they occasionally knock the little trucks into another direction lol. Turning the speed down helps control on correcting the steering and ends up being faster in the long run. Our local hobby shop recently had a grom race in their parking lot. I think that would be a great place to have a bit more power where you have full traction and no rocks to unsettle the whole truck

Thanks!

@@MysticRiverRC thank you!

I want to get one too! They look sick

@@andyrichey1192 I already forget if I mentioned in the video or not but I had the white one in my cart for a while and didn’t buy it. I was going to paint it purple anyway and then when I went to commit to purchasing the body they released one that was exactly the color I wanted so I went with that one. Whenever you put yours together don’t forget to check out my IR60 first look video. I have a few tips on it there as well. It’s not an assembly video but more of a before you build check this out kind of video

@@topqualityfi8216 I sorta agree. There were definitely some lines that stock did better but overall I’m feeling more comfortable with the new setup. I’ll be posting another video soon with the new wheels and tires and it’s the best setup so far on this rig! New wheels have brass rings to get more weight down low and grippier tires now too. Little thing is a beast now lol

@@KPtain_RC thank you!

@@j_dogfuturefirefighter good luck! I moved from Ohio a few years back to Texas and I’m loving it here. Colorado is beautiful but I don’t think I want to deal with the cold anymore 😂

@ yeah it’s cold but I hate it I only like the cold when it snows

@@j_dogfuturefirefighter I probably wouldn’t hate the cold as much if I wasn’t a mechanic. Working on rusty cars and trucks is not fun. After being in Texas I’d have to go through a career change to move back up north lol.

@ is your job a mechanic in Texas

@ yeah, I was one in ohio as well. Definitely a lot better down here though

@@j_dogfuturefirefighter drove up from Texas! I need to get out there again someday

@ nice

@@andyrichey1192 I don’t have a SCX24 but one of my friends has an IR60 for his that I crawled with that day. Wish I got a better look at it but with them sitting side by side they looked very similar in size. I think it’s mostly because of how much smaller the IR60 body is than the defender body mine had stock. If they’re not exactly the same they’re at least a lot closer than they normally are if that makes sense

No problem! I try to make videos I want to watch myself and this is something I wish I saw before I bought the setup. Hopefully it helps others too

@@frostlynreyes I’m thinking about getting one of those next! Enjoy!!

@@nandoscustomdiecast368 thank you!

It’s a great line to test out a rig with!

@@small.and.even.smaller thank you!

@@andyrichey1192 the body on that rig is a BMW body! He’s got a lot of work done to it. Thanks for watching!

@@ThePeakMotorsports he really did 😂

As fast as I could lol

@@OGRadGrow thanks!

Just wait to see it on 2.2

If you’re ever in the DFW area in Texas this is a great place to go crawling!

My blue truck surprises me all the time. Been told several times you can’t make a TRX-4 a good crawler and then I go out there and hit some lines that some 4 wheel steer trucks can’t hit! I will say it definitely does have a few shortcomings though. My wheelbase is a tad too short for this park and I need more steering angle but that’s a work in progress!

@@andyrichey1192 This park is so awesome. A little over a mile of trail and lines to hit. We usually spend several hours out here crawling and having fun!

Thank you!

It sorta depends on where you want to run them. The Granite does a lot better in short cut grass with the bigger tires and higher CG but the Mojave has a stronger body. Personally I like the way the Mojave drives better in the dirt but my dogs can chase the granite around in the backyard. They share the same electronics so stock for stock on pavement or dirt they should be about the same. I had a friend drive one and I drove the other around a circle track we made and it honestly ended up being who was the better driver of the two. We switched trucks and it didn’t seem like one was any faster than the other

@@drewncars9505Thanks

@@NTX_RC when I first started going there two guys that always ran Capras had some of the most bald tires I had ever seen. This truck is a close 2nd or 3rd 😳😂
