      Well welcome to the trx4m community!! I really appreciate your awesome coming bro, thank you very much!
      I try my best but I am very limited with the devices I have and the music available without copyright.
      So I really appreciate the feedback bro.

    Have the same problems and thought about the same solution. You could mill the transcase a bit down to fit in the narrow space.

    • @rcfungames
      @rcfungames  10 месяцев назад +2

      Looks like a few people have had this problem, I sent the measurements to Jeff at Injora and he has come back saying that they were too narrow!! But it looks like it was only a few out of the whole batch!
      I personally don't recommend shaving down the transmission mount, as then the whole geometry changes! Just use a couple of spices it's much easier.
      I'm sure if you contact Jeff at Injora and tell him you had this problem, they will ship out the correct length brass poles.

      Thank you so much for all the support.
      No I also wouldn't purchase this chassis again! Go for the new Universal lcg chassis! It's a really nice fit and it goes on all the platforms so you could always change the body if you wanted to just by taking away two of the little tabs.
      I think it's the best lcg chassis they've come out with.
      So just look for the universal lcg chassis on Injora site.

      That's awesome, you will not be disappointed.
      Even if you have a problem just use two spaces and you should be able to run the tray that comes even if you have this issue.
      The only reason the tray was falling out was the poles were really that short that by putting the mount in it made the Gap at the bottom too big.
      I have checked with Injora and they have double checked but all the rest seem to be perfect.
      So you should be lucky 😉

      Luckily it looks like it was only a very small percentage that have this issue, so far only five people have had this problem with the chassis.
      Yeah I could see there was going to be issues with clearing the bed of the truck with the wires that's why I didn't use the double-sided tape and bolted the ECM down to the tray, that allowed for just enough clearance to fit the body without any issues.
      Hell yeah bro get those puppies fitted because you're going to notice a massive improvement!

      No I didn't have any issues because I screwed my ECM down to the tray I made! Which allowed for just enough clearance for it not to push on the tab!
      But it is extremely close and the wires are bent over!
      So I removed the three cables from the tab, and cut away about 3 mm of the plastic which allowed for it to fit much better.

    What are the best upgrades/recomended for crawling on the trx4m Chevy k10 the red truck you have?

    • @rcfungames
      @rcfungames  7 месяцев назад +2

      1 I recommend the complete transmission from Injora with their 48T motor with the reduction gears.
      2
      I would then definitely recommend a servo! 7kg or 11kg from Injora.
      3
      Then I would definitely recommend to save a lot of money a set of extended axles with the stand-up Servo setup!
      4
      These are two upgrades but you might as well do them both at the same time, hi Clarence links and upgraded driveshafts.
      5
      And you might as well finish it all off with a set of brass rims and no bigger then 64mm tires
      That's my five recommended upgrades, and doesn't really leave a lot besides shocks chassis and electronics left to upgrade.
      In this manner you will end up saving a lot of money on your build in the long run.
      Hope that helps man, thanks for watching and commenting

    Seems to me LCG rails are kinda counter productive considering it’s a High Trail that’s the problem I have with my Defender M I was disappointed after a bunch of upgrades but then I just realized it’s never going to be a LCG rig I bought it because I liked they way it looks now I have fun with it because my expectations are lower now. You can’t make something out of something that was never meant to be.

    • @rcfungames
      @rcfungames  9 месяцев назад +1

      I don't understand your comment the lcg chassis improved the performance on my high Trail hugely!! It reduced its ride height and gave me much better articulation at the same time keeping the center of gravity lower.
      All in all it is my best performing rig .
      And I would recommend this upgrade to anybody that's looking for a bit of extra performance.

      Check out their new Universal lcg carbon fiber, it is adaptable to all the trx4m platforms.
      And the way it is set up I prefer it to the conventional lcg chassis.
      I also have no problems with the assembly and it allows for the lay down server setup which you never know if you want to do in the future as it provides better steering angles and articulation.

      If you're having binding when turning set the endpoints of your Servo to the point where it's not binding.
      Another question do you already have bearings? And are you still running the original axles?
      If you still got bushings and you run it once or twice it will start binding when you turn! If you're running the original axles you will have a very similar problem as the geometry designed by the factory is not great.

    • @rcfungames
      @rcfungames  5 месяцев назад +1

      These chassis are designed to taper on the front end, meaning it gets narrower.
      So if you want to run the portal axles with the light on servo, all you need to do is just make it a bit wider, use a spacer on the front brass pole separating the two chassis rails.
      That shoot alone for enough space to run to lay down servo setup.

    What a disappointment. And they didn't even work with you 😮. But proceeded you did ❤

      Don't worry! Jeff has been in touch and we have worked out it must just have been bad luck! I sure the rest will be perfect!
      I am still extremely happy with the performance gains I got from the chassis! And I still recommended it.

    That doesn’t seem like them just saying basically deal with it they should’ve offered assistance now to get it to work minimum dad on them if that’s the way it happened.

      They were perfectly helpful but there was no reason for them to send me out anything as I had already sorted out the problem.
      We discussed the measurements and the poles separating the two chassis rails were too short.
      Like this at least nobody else will have this problem because they have double checked all their stock.
