  • The Traxxas Hoss was an RC truck that shocked me and maybe many RC enthusiasts. This RC looked similar to other Traxxas platforms currently on the market, but they made a few tweaks to it. Those few tweaks turned it into a serious basher beast! I had a lot of fun driving this truck for the test and for some backyard bashing runs, but it was, well, stock! We can’t have that. So Greg set off to build an Ultimate Traxxas Hoss. Traxxas has a ton of options available to customize the truck, so Greg started the ordering process and kept with a red, white and blue theme for many of the parts. Interested in what Traxxas has to offer for the Hoss? This video series is one to follow and in this video, we’ll go over the suspension options. Sub now so you don’t miss any upcoming videos, this may just be the Best Hoss Build on the planet when it's done!

    What people don’t know is that traxxas metal axles have more resistance to torsion than their plastic ones so metal ones won’t just be more durable but also faster

    I love Traxxas products, like you said always perfect fitment, and quality looks. I would like to see Traxxas do colored chassis. That would be sweet especially for builds like your Hoss!!! Well done so far👍👍

    Very nice build. I should do a video of my Hoss build. I went for more of the driving experience and tuned allot of things. Even went as far of getting rid of the center differential and installed a slipper clutch so would stop doing endless wheelies! But overall the Hoss are fairly solid vehicles, mine has seen the skatepark dozens of times now.

    The rear camber links look like they are on different hole on the shock tower

      They’re in there temporarily. They’ll come off when the driveshafts go in. Thanks though!

      White but with different dots of paint to show the spring rate.

    I love my hoss but I kept breaking drive shafts. Ive used stock, and all the upgrades versions. once i got the front to stop breaking 2 minutes into a bash the rear started breaking. Going to gather up the parts to try again this season. If not then I give uo and go full on crawler side of the hobby.
