Awesome Bash and upgrades Brother Rocky 😜. I've had HR front hubs waiting on the bench for a bit now 👀. My buddy Rob hook me up. Great to see they're working nicely. Stoked M2C will be making upgrades for the mini Maxx 😍. Looking forward to getting her back out again soon!!!! Thanks for this vid and sharing your tips Brother. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
Yeah bro those HR front hubs are sooo much better man! You'll never have those pins pop out again ⚡🤩🚀🚀🚀. I am super excited to see what M2C will make for the mini Maxx👏👏💥. Thank you my bro! We will keep bashing until we make every rig a beast! Haha poor Mitch has his work cut out for him! Good thing he is an awesome dude with tons and tons of talent! 💥💥🚀🤩🤩🤩🤩
I would add one other mod that I did on my Maxx V2; Get rid of the stupid (IMO) battery tray system and go with some good straps. I now can run any size battery that I want and they stay put. Excellent video.
You can take a small grub screw and put in the male end of the axle to keep the glue from leaking then fill it with gorilla glue, makes them a lot stronger.
I just ordered a new Maxx V2, first ever RC car but your never too old right. I have been watching your vids and others but finally came to the realization that your bashing right in front of Little Bay in Rockport Texas, it was my home for 14 years. I still have two sailboats in storage down there. I just recently moved back to our land in East Texas which is why i'm buying a basher. 79 acres and a back hoe, I figure i can have some fun. That street you are on was my shortcut from Key Allegro to wallyworld. Can't believe i never saw you. Keep bashing and chive on friend.
Awsome upgr tip brother. The HR steeeing knuckles are on ma next list. Broken a few 🤣. Bout the metal cvds i agree..they are costy as few, but sure worth every $. Only downside is, the metal outdrives like ERe o 2.o are made of good 🧀🙈. I rehardened mknes and are now flawless 🥰
I also have the V1 & V2 and these are really great trucks. Fast, durable, & my neighbors like them because they’re quieter than my Arrma’s…lol I know I know, but I have some really nose up to everything neighbors and these at least keep them in their houses when I just want to bash around the house. Especially with the Prolines on, man I’m telling those tires make less noise at least to me than the stock ones Another great video
On mine, I replaced the c-hub part with treal instead of the axle carrier. I figured I'd stick with the stock carrier since it pivots on the king pin and over time will wear. The OEM carrier is a lot cheaper to replace due to wear than an alloy one. With the treal c-hub, I haven't had one pop out since I installed them. Prior to that, they would pop out on me constantly.
Another great video, Rocky. Thanks for all the helpful tips and info. I'm gonna order the upgrade parts you suggest one at a time so I don't break the bank and I have them when my Maxx V2 arrives on my birthday from the wifey. Lol. Bash on, brother.
Hey dont forget to add the aluminum toe links i got the hot racing steering bellcrank assembly with the over priced traxxas aluminum wide toe links steering is 100% better than stock no breakages and i deff bash hard i also run 80 wt in all shocks helps with the mega jumps 👍
Nice bro very nice. I've found that the front and rear hubs are weak (replaced with aluminum Traxxas ones), the C hubs are weak (replaced with aluminum Traxxas ones), I broke one of the plastic ones driveshafts (replaced with steel CVDS from Traxxas, but now sure if that was necessary), replaced wheel hex ends with aluminum ones from REVO 2.0 (so that the steel CVDS can work), replaced ESC with Max 8 ESC (much better punch and power), replaced receiver with spectrum receiver, replaced spur gear cover with gpm aluminum one (motor kept shifting), replaced motor mount with aluminum one (motor kept shifting). So yeah lots of expensive upgrades 😅
@@thunderrc Well honestly $569 isn't that cheap. It's now worth well over $1k, which is more than a new Xmaxx, BUT my 1/5 electronics Xmaxx is WAY MORE expensive than a new Xmaxx (somewhere around $2k in upgrades and the price of the truck). I need the upgrades so that these things can take my 26ft plus jumps better and my occasional bad landings 🤣👍
It's cool to see what upgrades needs done to help make it as reliable as possible. For me I like to do the bare minimum to keep the vehicles as stock as possible. The oil mixture you have in the shocks seems pretty well sorted. I usually mix oils myself. Btw, I have the hub extentions and I love them.
Appreciate the tips bro,👍 soaking them up from the forums and Tubers and apply to mine. Guess will end up with a 1K Maxx like everyone else. 🤣 M2C drivshafts would be killer. ✌ brother.
THAT WAS EPIC THUNDER!!!! Major props on your freestyle! Always an honor to watch your videos bro! Great upgrades and advise, your #1 🏆in my book Brother Thunder! ⚡️🧨💥🔥⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
Just got the steel cvd's on my WideMaxx v1. I've only used a 3s battery, and I still snapped the stock driveshafts. But to be fair I rally race it with 3.8 E-Revo wheels and 20t pinion.. maybe self-righting did it?
So pretty much upgrades like that if you plan on running your Max as if it were an airplane without wings…. Got it. But when you say you mix your shock oil- I don’t remember what mixture you said you put in the front but when you said you mixed 50 weight and 80 weight 50-50, what weight shock oil does that equate to in the end like, 75w or something?
I have no plans on ever getting a Maxx V2 or a used V1 at that, but i personally feel like that is a good platform for a Tekin RX8 ESC. I would in fact pick that ESC over a Hobbywing or a Castle Creations ESC myself and i like Hobbywing and Castle. Not sure why i would put the Tekin over the Hobbywing or the Castle. I just think it would perform really well in it.
Loved all the tuning you did to suit your driving style Rocky. . Plastic driveshaft is a total deal breaker for me man.. I can't stand them and Plastic Spur! Trucks are getting more powerful and fast should be a Crime to use them plastic Shit LoL 🤣 another awesome upload brother
Thanks for the tips bro very helpful on a great budget, I have a V1 and got the V2 chassis and other stuff that goes with it cage, driveshaft etc, it's actually only like four parts, just can't get body yet. But gonna use your tips for reassembly....love the channel👍👍
With the Maxx since I'm from New York I send it everywhere in the Bronx, and this one time when I had the plastic hubs I managed to snap the stock king pins that came with the truck 🤣🤣🤣. So since I bought the captured hinge pins I went ahead and treated them with more heat and used transmission fluid to cool it off and it's been a whole hell of a lot stronger since doing that with aluminum hubs. I wanted to ask you too, what tires would you recommend if you walk around the city for 3 hours, the proline trenchers 3.8 LP or the badlands you have on your Maxx? Let me know please 🙏. Love your vids!
Would the lighter oil float on top of the heavy oil inside the shocks? Could this be considered as two stage dampening?🤣 Any pros/cons to mixing oil like that?
Hey pretty cool I'm just getting back into this and just bought the wide maxx I don't see the links for those up grades is that still what you recommend I see this is a year ago
Sorry about that brother, yeah, I forgot to put the links on when I made the video. I don’t on that truck anymore but I can try to help you find the parts.
Do you feel there was performance boost from the esc while still using 4s? You made it sound as if the vxl 4s was somewhat underpowered..I dont really want to get new battery packs at the moment but wouldn't mind swapping the esc.
Great video Man. thank you! I know you have been asked this already but can you please share the part numbers fir the upgrades? I would REALLY appreciate it!
Have you tried the Power Hobby belted tires for the Maxx yet ? There are two : Raptor and Defender , I have a set of belted hatchet 2.8 duratrax ones , they are just a bit out of round and work ok , Keep up the good work ! love the channel

THUNDER!!! Is there an extender for the Maxx V2 with the CV steel driveshaft? Looking at the Hot Racing stuff but not sure which one fits. The CV driveshaft has a hole for the pin but it doesn't have any threads for screws. Apologies I'm kind of a RC noob. Appreciate it!
Hey man thanks for asking. So the stick plastic hubs wear out quickly where the pins fit it to the casterblocks. When this happens every jump the pins will pop out of the hub. The metal HR hubs are solid and never fail.⚡👍

sleepin on Vitavon. They've had steel axles for a while that are a big upgrade over the traxxas steel axles. Managed to mangle my traxxas and hot racing 6061 aluminum parts in one season so I've switched over to Vitavon on all the upgrades. Wish I went that route the first time lmao 🤑

Good question brother ⚡️🔥🔥Your only option for the extended steel driveshafts would be the Traxxas ones I think 👍

Whats the difference between the HR hubs and the traxxas part 8937X. im new to all this

Which tires are those Rocky? Look wicked
Proline Badlands 3.8 👍⚡⚡🚀🤩
Can't wait your Tekno MT410 runs 🏴☠️🚀
Yes I just got all the parts in for it and it should be very soon!🤩🚀💥💥⚡⚡
How are the tires ?
Have the M2C racing metal drive shafts came out. And what extenders do you have?
Thanks, love the videos
Thanks a ton brotha! I’m not sure if the driveshafts have been released yet. I’ll have to check and see🏆⚡️⚡️👍
I had some eBay extenders, I’ll see if I can find the link.
Great job on the mods ... still running the original motor ? What gearing you got on there ? Love the vid
Thank you so much bro! Yes same motor on the stock gearing 24/50 on 4s ⚡🚀💥💥🤩
@@thunderrc love it ....
I want one so bad!!! But I bought a tekno MT410 instead 🤪maybe next rig🤷🏻♂️
Tekno is awesome! So is the Maxx! I think owning both is a must!⚡⚡🚀🤩💥
It's been 8 months. So what you using for driveshafts now? M2C never made anything.
What tires are you running on the v2?
Proline badlands mx 3.8 🤩🤩💥🚀⚡
Bro i break bulkheads so much any recommendations?
Keep the truck light as possible
@@thunderrc it's all stock brother
@thunderrc i have 3maxxs one for me and my girl and her friend all cracked bulkheads every time
I put the traxxas sledge tires on my maxx and now every other tire looks small
That’s a great idea!🏆⚡️🔥🔥
