Thanks man

Will only get better each year. Cheers

Thank you

Thank you

Thats odd. I should check my subs Thanks mate

@@RockyMtnRCAdventure yeah ya always hear creators saying it. Well it's true. Especially if they are too A or if it has ta do with the rich men North of Richmond type stuff. Can't even say what ya want on here without penalties

Thanks man. I did a test run on the trail with those tires and not great there either. Rocks, loose dirt... just not good. Basically a good looking scale trail driving tire only. Next time you see this thing, its definitely going to have different shoes on it. :)

They are really nice these things. FMS has really been knocking out of the park with their RC's and the details

Thanks pal.

Thanks!

Thanks man

Thanks. Still dialing it in but sure am enjoying it

Thanks buddy. I"m enjoying all your vids. You are a machine

@@RockyMtnRCAdventure well thanks man! I enjoy everyone’s videos of their cj’s! Makes me want the silver one too!

@@RockyMtnRCAdventure I have the high jack lift mounts to mount my jack on the hood, just haven’t looked into doing it yet. It looks great up on your hood man!

@@MidwestRCcrawler Thanks dude. The mounts were a hack I came up with but they work great. Two screws of the right length and then some red rubber hose cut into 4 washers. The rubber can just spin off and the jack can be removed. Might not be perfect or true scale but I'm not overly concerned down at that level of scrutiny.

Thanks. Will be getting one done in the near future with the truck modded and tweaked but right now we are under snow and its -44 up here in my neck of the woods. This may take a while. :)

Sweet.

Thanks man. Yeah, I gave that a try for just those reasons and it actually worked out okay. Cheers!

Thanks very much. Will do

I cannot even count how many times I have gone here to play. It's a super popular spot for the rc community. Everyday there is someone there. Cheers

Pitbull growlers. Cheers

Thanks man. It's a bit tough on this guy too. The next ones I build will be a tad smaller (obstacle size) to be a hair easier

Thanks. Cheers

Thanks so much. I appreciate the support. Cheers

4.75 inch 1.9's. They are a perfect fit. No rubbing at all

Thanks, I appreciate that. Welcome to the club mate

Thank you. Cheers

"Drive it like you're in it" is my motto. Just have to pretend you got a ton of money invested in a real one... how would you drive it then? Plus, when these things go zipping by really fast and then break... where is the joy in any of that? Cheers brother

Thanks man

Thank you very much :)

I eventually burned out and left the building part but the guys who came in after and continued on with it have made it even better. Such a great community we have. Cheers

Thanks. Yeah, I agree... I have tried several tires and I keep coming back to these. Plus performance wise... I haven't found a tire yet that is better. Pitbull growlers really are amazing.

Thanks man. I appreciate the support

Just the right depth water especially. I love the realism aspect of the hobby so no pretending I'm a submarine pilot for this guy.

Thanks man. I miss it. Sold it awhile ago with a bunch of my other rigs to help pay some bills. Sigh.

Thanks man. Glad

The idea was sound but not enough interest to carry it fwd. We had fun though

Thanks brother. I'm always enjoying your vids as well

Thanks so much.

Hi Bryn... great truck. The leafs need protection against torque twist so google up how to do that. The rest of it will last ages but there are upgrades out there if you must. It really is a capable truck out of the box and pretty near bullet proof. Enjoy

Cheers. Look fwd to seeing it done.

Thanks very much. Enjoy yours as well. :)

Thanks Luvtoflyhelis. Have fun with that truck!!

Thanks very much. Appreciated.

Actually... I have less than when I got it. I have very heavy wheels with aluminum rims and inside is a full strip of lead in each. That makes those wheels pull down when they get air and causes the flex. I found the single leaf that was in it when I bought it was not enough plus I also have a low turn motor and a 4:1 gear reduction unit in it so the torque is extreme. This causes torque twist in the axles when the wheels get jammed in sometimes among obstacles. Many guys put a single link from the pumpkin to the skid plate to reduce that axle twisting. I haven't done that yet but what I did do is taking some metal strapping that we use at work to wrap large items shipping on the pallets... I cut the metal down the middle and its the perfect width for a leaf. I drilled holes and put some in as second leafs so that they are now giving it much more strength but it takes away some of the flex that it used to have. I'm okay with that as its much more stock and realistic this way. The next step is to put some hangers on front and back so I can get a bit more droop when its crawling. Going back to the leafs topic... a lot of guys end up snapping their leafs due to repeated torque twist. I won't have that problem. Thanks for the question and comment. Enjoy that Willys my friend!

Just an update to my comment a moment ago... I think at the time of filming this particular video, I hadn't put the aluminum wheels on yet and the second leafs were not installed yet so there was more flex and twist. See my more recent videos to compare. Cheers

Awesome, thanks for the info! I really like your idea using pallet strapping for leafs...that's perfect! Keep the videos coming, great music and great crawling spots!

Not sure about ESC... Axial but not sure what kind. Motor is 35 turn but I have a 4:1 GRU from RC4WD attached to it. Gives great control and realistic crawling but a baby can move faster than this thing. lol. It's also "very quiet" because I turned off the sound when I added the music.

Losi Trail Trekker is the brand

thank u scott, btw nice litte truck and i guess still looking for HBX devastator cause this one is awesome too
