I had a 1987 lifted Cheyenne on 44" Super Swampers back in high school. Every farmer's son wanted to buy it, and every farmer's daughter pretended to like me, lol.
That mud truck setup is awesome. It has that over the top 80’s action hero look to it. One idea for the interior (if you decide to put one in) would be Ace Ventura leaning out the side window saying “Looooossseeer,” like he did in the monster truck scene in When Nature Calls. That would e awesome.
For the bumper for your CUCV, look at the GMade Military Buffalo. That's an M1009 CUCV (the Blazer) and they had the same bumpers/brush guards. Also remember the CUCVs had 2 square cutouts in the grill. One for a blackout driving light, the other for a 24V jumper.
@@scalebuildersguild No problem! If you need any images of the CUCV grill, bush guard or bumpers, let me know. My Blazer has them. They're really interesting. Like how the cuts were done at an angle. Something you generally don't notice by looking from the front.
The bed on the CUCV looks great! Those tires look appropriate, but I do wish someone would make some 8 lug wheels for the 3/4 ton pick-ups. The Traxxas looks ridiculous with the monster tires! The narrow set will probably be perfect. I think the gloss clear will work to "fix" the windows, and an interior would definitely make this truck look complete. If there's room, a "seat depth" interior would look awesome. I've also wondered if an RC4WD hard body could work on the TRX4? (Probably not enough room)
Those tires would look excellent on my scxiii turquoise bronco. I have front pinched with a stinger but tig welded tube. Complet fire wall and fender line tied into the stinger and old bumper post holes. Running idk yellow/amber light pods square from some team Losi desert buggy. -thin aluminum sheet metal fallowing the tube doors, and roof. -back same tig bumper and roll pan. -hobby wing 1200kv foc I won’t buy another set up probably again if it last. I am so truly amazed buy it. And the bec feels stronger then my castle one both set @ 6.0v savox sg1230 500oz. -beautiful tires and the heavy chevy build!
To my knowledge all the cucv square body trucks and blazers had dual tanks and the round outside mounted caps. Also the cucv were 6 lugs.. also this thing is bad ass
I just like watching you work. It’s inspiring. Your delivery of “off comments” makes it entertaining. I enjoy the fun diversion projects like the mud truck or the semi-pc just as entertaining and interesting as your build-offs with Harley or your super scale projects. Please keep doing what your doing….Even my wife is now a part of watching your videos once work is over and we get to sit down with a glass of wine or whatever.
The nice thing about when you buy something you can do anything you want to it & opinions don’t really matter. That being said it looked way better in original form.
I must commend your "effort" (as you put it) on clearing those painted windows. Well done good sir. Patience, discipline, or just plain 'ol free time, either way you're an inspiration. Cheers.
Fantastic transformation of the K10 to a mudder bigfoot truck. Also the rounding of the box to cab transition really makes the transition pop and shows the era of the C10.
I am running the TRX-4 Sport with the jconcepts Renegades on the tribute Wheels, so far it floats on just about anything you point it at. With the exception of mud, I have to wait for the snow ❄ to melt away first 😈
Help I’m surrounded by 1/24th scaled madness! It’s worse than that bad Matt Damon film…well almost as bad. I enjoy your post and demeanor.. and a big thanks for getting me into Styrene
I gotta say im sure lovin that Hard body Chevy, looks awesome so far. I cant believe im almost 60 and still playin with "toy" trucks, actually enjoying them more now than when I was a kid. My K10 High trail should be in on the 16th and I cant wait. Gotta give my 63 year old buddy a call right now to see if he wants to come over and play trucks.......Later. Mike
You're never too old, and I think I'm having more fun too, especially since it's a hobby that you can improve your skills and learn something new all the time. Thanks for watching and enjoy the High Trail!
Nice looking high lift Chevy. Those wheels could go nicely on a Jeep or your land rover. Thanks for sharing your hard dedication Matt. And thanks for reading our comments.👍
I just googled the Jconcepts fling king Jr 2.2 's - those are definitely the wheels and tires you need to go with on the TRX4 K10 mud truck. Would keep that clodbuster look you are going for and would work way better as well.
LOVE THE NEW CLODBUSTER. That's awesome. I know it's not a Clod but it's great looking. I bought a Clod in 1989 and had it for 27 years....very weak plastic. The TRX4 is way more durable. Again, it looks awesome. Oh, don't they have JConcepts Fling Kings Jr 2.2" Monster Truck Tire Part#: JCO3083-01. That would've been easier to install.
They use to have an unlimited class for crawlers. Most used clod buster axles. I built a clod axle crawler back in 2004'ish. Thing was a beast. Could drive it from the floor up onto the couch like it wasn't anything. Hobbytown dallas stole it from me, along with many other models I had
Great looking trucks. Yes, for the interior in the mud truck and toyo tires on the blue/grey scx3 jeep. I know it is a copy of the jeep you owned, but I think they will look great on the jeep.
If I'm not mistaken, jconcepts makes a set of 2.6 wheels for Clod sized tires with the same hex adapter as the dragons. I say, drop the steering servo down to the axle, go full double triangulated four link front suspension and double shocks on all four corners. 😉
I seriously like both of these projects! The mud truck looks like a early 80s period correct version of a mud truck. An old school warn bumper similar to the clod would look great. Adding the prerequisite "roll bar" to the bed with some KC Daylighters would be sweet! Overall great job!!
Definitely should put an interior in the mud truck! That would really top it off. That thing reminds me of the radio shack super 4x4 off-roader I had when I was a kid. Those were more of a Ford but same sort of style
I look forward to watching what's on the bench every week! You have inspired me to build up my lexan bodies to look more scale! I would love to see an interior in the K10, GMP makes a great interior for the Traxxas Blazer that should fit perfectly in the new pickup!
I think those Pro-Line Toyo's would look pretty good on the TRX Bronco behind you. May look more scale than the tires on it. Also, if the Mud Clod is going to get an interior, I think it should be a simple Tamiya style driver like from the Blackfoot. Thanks for the great content!
I'm loving everything you and Josh are doing, I have spent more of my time then I care to admit watching the both of you! Keep it up, I feel like I'm waiting for my next fix between videos! Lol
The CUCV is coming along nicely 😃🔥 Now that you have the TRX4 K10 Cheyenne High-Trail as a Monster Mudder with the Big Blower that I was thinking about doing to mine, I think I'll go a different route, Not that I don't like what you've done but after seeing it all together it's just not gonna be what I was hoping for... Again Thank You Matt for all you do for Us Hobbiest in the RCing Community and Please don't put those "Front Sand Tire's on the CUCV" 😆😜🤪 JOKINGLY SAID ✌🤠👍 HFLPRCing =Having Fun Laughing Playing and RCing 🙏 SSPH =Stay Safe and Play Healthy My Friend 💯❣️
@@scalebuildersguild Probably brushgaurd with LEDs, Roll bar with lights, of course wet sand clear windows, 15 mm extensions, add weight, seat and driver, maybe a dog in the back?
The TRX looks awesome, like an updated Clodbuster. I've been looking at my lifted TRX-4 Blazer & my LMT tires pondering but i have to much sag for crawling
Love your channel man, you don't buy something then tear it up and that's it. you do really good reviews and especially very eclectic on what you do or what you go over. also you got me to go with the ssd trail king p so thank you. your Texas friend kidd.. out.
That looks really good. Reminds me of the early monster truck look of late 80s/early 90s with big tires on a lifted truck with not much suspension travel.
Great episode. The that cuvc ...... spelling may be off.... looks awesome, really coming along. Those toyo tires would look great on a jeep. Or a classic build. The rims are the holeshot rims, kmc, incision. Pretend the spelling is ok hahaha. I know everything. This has nothing to do with the fact I watched last night's wenesday night take over where Josh said what they were. Hahahahaha. I love the monster mud truck. I think it needs an interior...

It’s a monster truck from early 80s! Love it ❤
Oh my 80's child hood clod.... I wish !!!
Holly crap man that blows my mind the tranceformation
Thanks for watching!

Very cool!
I just bought one of the trx4's and your videos are the first to pop up. Glad I found your channel
Welcome aboard!
It's like a modern day clodbuster, but without all the issues of the O.G. clod...
It looks gnarley...👍
Thank you!

"Anything worth doing, takes time!!"
Mud truck takes me back to 80,s monster trucks. King Crunch
Clod Buster 2.0 is awesome. I want one!
Definitely looks like Snoop Dogg is hotboxing in the K10 😂😂😂
TRX4 looking a lot like Tamiyas Clodbuster! 😉👌
That's a cool looking truck my northern brother.
Thank you!
Dude I like them wheels package on that Chevy truck! I can picture it done already! Nice!
Thanks 👍
Decked out nicely...🤘🏼💯✔️
Reminds me of a radio shack truck I had as a kid :)… nostalgia!
That AMAIN Hobbies shirt is killer!
Thanks!
Oh my good you crazy Buddy this is insane badass truck you a génius love it
Thanks 👍
Love the old skool Chevy, I mean CUCV. lol
Windows on the k10 mud truck look someone is having some steamy fun in there 😂
Maybe I’m too old but it’s about damn time someone in RC world does the fall guy truck
The TRX4 is very Clodbuster-esque. I say don't bother with the interior as once it's in the mud, nobody will see it anyways lol. Loving this series!
We'll see if I end up making one. Thanks for watching!

Rc4wd bodies are too narrow for a trx4 chassis. At least the bodies like the Mojave pickup
Very informative and well done, Matt!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Trx4-clod buster
I concur, the preview made me think the exact same thing 👍
That is badass!!! I've been waiting for somebody to put cloud sized tires on a crawler!!!😎
i like the tribute theme to the clod buster; well done. The CUCV is going to be really nice.
I am loving these “What’s on the bench” episodes 🤩
Glad you like them!
How can I get my hands on a square body Chevy for a 1/10 scale crawler just cab only
Not sure you can! I've modded the RC4WD Blazer, but that's about it.
Thank you very much for all the videos you created and all of your creativity! It gives us great ideas
So nice of you to say... thanks for watching!
Awesome build!! Interior build please!!
To my knowledge all the cucv square body trucks and blazers had dual tanks and the round outside mounted caps. Also the cucv were 6 lugs.. also this thing is bad ass
Excellent! Been waiting for this video after the last teaser!!!
Loving the retro clod look lol
that's what I've been wanting Traxxas to release with a Bigfoot body
Yes the blower does set it off Perfect size 2
I can see you building that rig into a mega truck
Looking like a mini Clodbuster lol
Great looking mud truck. You definitely can build nice looking trucks. I enjoy your page ☺️ 😊
Thanks 👍
Good looking truck not comical cartoonist reminds me of the USA1 or Clod Buster good job

The wheels you mounted the Toyo Open Countrys on are KMC Holeshots.

Anything good takes time. A great motto for scale building.

Put those open country’s on the Gladiator…those would look great with the black accents and livery
Thanks for the suggestion!
Absolutely love the fun INTRO to this weekly gig of yours. It puts you in a happy place right from the get-go. Thank you Josh...I mean Matt.
Glad you enjoy it!
I vote the toyo tires should live on the fun haver prerunner truck. Im also loving the trx4 mudtruck
Nice looking high lift Chevy. Those wheels could go nicely on a Jeep or your land rover. Thanks for sharing your hard dedication Matt. And thanks for reading our comments.👍
Great suggestion and thanks for watching!
😝 the license plate!
I just googled the Jconcepts fling king Jr 2.2 's - those are definitely the wheels and tires you need to go with on the TRX4 K10 mud truck. Would keep that clodbuster look you are going for and would work way better as well.

Hey do the 2.2 and bigger wheels bolt up on the TRX4M? Are the wheel nuts the same?

Awe YEA!!!! It is the perfect replica of 80's monster trucks!!!! Freaking AWESOME brother, great job!!!!🤘🤘🤘

Coming soon... I just have to find some mud!
That Chevy mud truck looks like an old Tamiya

That thing reminds me of the radio shack super 4x4 off-roader I had when I was a kid. Those were more of a Ford but same sort of style
I put the toyos on my lowered standard axle swapped 10.3 gladiator and they have been great so far!
Good to hear!
Always a legend scale builder’s guild build build. Guild build. Love this guild build 👌👌👌⭐️⭐️⭐️
😂 Love building guild builds!
Also since it’s in the background,I think those toyos would look great on that bug
Good suggestion! Thanks for watching!
I think it would do pretty good.. might surprise you.. with those huge tires
It would be awsome to do a retro USA-1 with those fling kings
The blower really ties it all together 👍
Your high trail Cheyenne reminds me of USA 1 an looks like the 70s to 80s still monster trucks looks badass I might do that to my Trx4 Cheyenne
Go for it!

I'm going for show truck look with that rollbar traxxas has for it an a few other things on my high trail. Maybe some chevy flags too (old skool)
I think you should put those open country tryes on the Phoenix for us so we can see what the truck looks like with a little bit smaller tyres on it.
.

Same. Honestly Matt's and Josh's videos is the only ones I watch with consistency every week.
That looks quite similar to the monster trucks of the early 80’s.
Great update this week. Nice to see what you have been up to. Interesting to hear you shot the Traxxas bronco winch video 👍🏼
I think the toyos should go on a knight runner maybe. What do you think Matt? Love the show. Much love brother 👍🏻✌🏼🤟🏻
Good idea! Thanks for watching!
🙋🏼♂️ I have a suggestion on what build to put the Toyo’s on. Mine!!! 😂🤣 Cool to see Toyo brought into the mix of scale branded tires.

Tires would look killer on the 21 bronco
