It's amazing how many things people have made, and are available on shapeways. In the last 4 years - I am surprised how many New Bodies have been coming to market. I remember most of us old timers were stuck with the Hilux, Cherokee, and Jeeps.. Lol... Must be why Im crusty.. Your collection looks fantastic
Thanks for Matt’s link...... for links. We love the OD, SSD knuckles and axle weights. A beef tube front axle makes this a beast on 4.13” tires. You Enabler!!!!!!!!
Just started this "series". I'm building the RC4WD 1987 Toyota Xtra Cab body on the Element Enduro builders kit. Bought SSD white beadlocks and those same tires. :)
Thats what she said......Sorry it just seemed like it needed to be added in there.... Am loving this series, I have an Element Kit and am anxious to see what other upgrades you will go with. I have found this truck does work so well, even put it up against my Capra in several videos and it has preformed excellent. Great Job man, Love the channel!
This is going to awesome when its finished, the rigs are never finished lol always upgrading and changing things, a martini livery would be cool or if thats not rc friendly then a gulf livery would be epic.
High clearance links in a setup like this your drive shaft universal the lowest point, which can cause binding against surface obstructions as well as more hang ups.
Didn't this truck come out about 6 months ago at 'By The Fire'? And it's already old? WOW! R/C moves quick, at least this year. I'm glad you're keeping up so I don't have to. Or can't afford to. Thanks for the video.
Matt, have you tried printing in HIPS? It's not much different than PLA, just a slightly higher temp and much easier to sand. Enjoying this series so far!
Homie I spit my coffee out when u made the comment about where you like it lol we knew what u meant just bustin your chops a lil awesome vid keepem coming happy holidays from my fam to yours
Great series, looking forward to the coming episodes. Umm, paint scheme? Matt black? ...........again! 😂 Seriously though, I think white and orange for this truck, with lots of scale sponsor decals, kind of like the Fox desert racer. 😎👍
You don’t have to remove the motor to change the gears and I really like the direction your going I can’t wait to see how you pint it I love your paint jobs
How's this project going? Or on the back burner for the time being given the other prep work going on for the upcoming events (no worries as I understand if it's not going). :-) Just asking as I started working on an Enduro builders chassis kit (my very first class 1 rig).
I would paint the truck like the Toyota Hilux pick-up in the 2019 Dakar rally. ( it is red, white and black) or paint it like the trophy truck from the 2019 Baja 1000 ,which is the Levi truck(blue , white and Red).
Delayed question! I am currently working on an interior for my "metric" body.. I am looking to get a 3D printed dash for it to be similar to a 2nd gen taco. Any resources out there??
I glanced at the Thumbnail and thought you were getting into the drift scene for a second lol Come to the dark side! We can finally collaborate on content
thanks again for your super video.. because of you i will buy a trailrunner... and by the way. those the part that you put on this truck will it fit on the trailrunner?... not the body part but mecanic addon?
How about a RealTree or Mossy Oak wrap. Or maybe a dip. I always wanted to know if anyone has dipped a lexan body before. Or I would go with a Taco Bell hot sauce packet paint scheme to keep with your theme.
I’m also overhauling my enduro. I’m gonna put an axe in it. These rims I have make it set a lot wider. Any ideas what body would look good with extended hubs?
Hmm, since it's not an official Toyota, how about something completely different. So how about a muscle car era inspired design? Something simple like Dodges Superbee with the vertical stripe on the rear fenders with a Superbee logo in the middle of them (though I'd use the SBG logo of course) or something like AMC's red white blue AMX paint scheme (though feel free to use other eye popping colors of course).
Do you have another way to connect with Matt from rc4x4 other than the FB link in the description? I don’t use FB but am interested in the links. Either way, thanks for what you do and have a great evening!

Yes, it really is the golden age for tiny trucks now! Thanks for the kind words!
Great link upgrade in your truck, and that engine looks SSSSSiK!
SBG colors! Red, white and blue.
DO A TACO BELL THEME! If it doesnt say Grande on it, I dont want it! 🤣🤣
Thanks for Matt’s link...... for links.
We love the OD, SSD knuckles and axle weights. A beef tube front axle makes this a beast on 4.13” tires.
You Enabler!!!!!!!!
Burnt Orange paint on the body, satin finish, gun metal grey on some custom add-ons, flat black fender flares, bumper's gun metal grey
Just started this "series". I'm building the RC4WD 1987 Toyota Xtra Cab body on the Element Enduro builders kit. Bought SSD white beadlocks and those same tires. :)
Color wise I think a burnt copper would look pretty sweet. Can't wait to see this amazing build come to fruition!
Paris dakkar rally truck theme !!
i'm buying this body for my trailrunner i can't control myself it's too awesome! after seeing SOR racing Tacoma I'm in love
Yes the aftermarket has been busy with new options for your Element Enduro....can't wait for the 3rd episode...
Blue ,light blue ,and white
yellow orange red green. TACOS DUDE!
Taco Truck theme! This body has so much potential I like the look of it.
4:48 this is why I come...here.... Um..... LOVE THE BUILD!!!
Me 2 Haha this guy is funny.
Those 3d printed parts look great. I feel like sanding is actually pretty rewarding when you can see your parts improving right in front of you.
Metallic green with black trim
RAINBOW BRIGHT!

I just purchased the whole set of overland parts from myminifactory in the link to your video! Can't wait to print em out!!!
Nice one!
I'll post some Instagram pics and tag you!
GMRC has the machete chassis that will lower the truck overall. Really nice upgrade and not expensive.
thanks for this series following along to try and improve my Enduro
That Proline Body is really impressive!
This is going to awesome when its finished, the rigs are never finished lol always upgrading and changing things, a martini livery would be cool or if thats not rc friendly then a gulf livery would be epic.
High clearance links in a setup like this your drive shaft universal the lowest point, which can cause binding against surface obstructions as well as more hang ups.
An Overland Expedition theme would be sweet!
Very helpful with the overdrive. I seriously do not know why you don’t have more subscribers.
It must be my ugly face. 😉
Taco Bell scheme, with a cat sub-theme followed by flavor town-esque flames on the tires!
Didn't this truck come out about 6 months ago at 'By The Fire'? And it's already old? WOW! R/C moves quick, at least this year. I'm glad you're keeping up so I don't have to. Or can't afford to.
Thanks for the video.
Cool, looking forward to ... Pink & black.. NC ❤MOUNTAINS back yard RC.AND MORE. 🏞🖒
Matt, have you tried printing in HIPS? It's not much different than PLA, just a slightly higher temp and much easier to sand. Enjoying this series so far!
If your doing anymore videos of overhauling do a high torque servo and some high end electronics. And some fender well's on the inside of the body.
Arctic camouflage!!
Back to the Future Tacoma theme please, with the yellow KC lights and taco bell wrappers in the bed
All fantastic Stuff , the Toyota Body looks great 👍 great stuff , great build and info, really enjoyed every minute 😁
Metallic Forest green Tacoma’s are rare and look great with bronze wheels
Old school taco Bell colors and patterns!!
OMG are you kidding me thats freakin awesome man very nice great job my friend happy bashing bro🤙😎🤪😜😝🙈🙉🙊👊✌
I prefer it in the rear too 🤣 My rear has taken a pounding over the years🤣
super cool body i will look in to this video of the Sendero ,ive got the red one and looking for a body and some upgrades :p
You’ve got to find a way to do one of the new colors like the matte tan, grey or blue that the new Tacos have! They look sick!
Homie I spit my coffee out when u made the comment about where you like it lol we knew what u meant just bustin your chops a lil awesome vid keepem coming happy holidays from my fam to yours

Seriously though, I think white and orange for this truck, with lots of scale sponsor decals, kind of like the Fox desert racer. 😎👍
wow!!! those links look stellar. I think you sold a set.
After watching this video I went to rc4x4 performance stainless and ordered me a set of those links
You don’t have to remove the motor to change the gears and I really like the direction your going I can’t wait to see how you pint it I love your paint jobs
Great series so far. How about a 90's mini truck paint. A lot of work, but different.
Cant wait to get an sendaro. Would be cool to do it in the element rc colors
Awsome like the fact you said no raxing other u tubers.alot of drama lately in the rc world
Metallic plum purple and copper
The old tyco bandit scheme
How's this project going? Or on the back burner for the time being given the other prep work going on for the upcoming events (no worries as I understand if it's not going). :-) Just asking as I started working on an Enduro builders chassis kit (my very first class 1 rig).
What do you think of the RCmart Xtra Speed XS01 Crawler kit?
I would paint the truck like the Toyota Hilux pick-up in the 2019 Dakar rally. ( it is red, white and black) or paint it like the trophy truck from the 2019 Baja 1000 ,which is the Levi truck(blue , white and Red).
Trailrecon paint scheme similar to the wrap he just removed from his wrangler
But if the driveshaft hang below the high clearance links...do they work?🤔
Nice build. Seems to be a bit on the high clearance side. Hard to tell. Are you gonna lower it any?
Delayed question! I am currently working on an interior for my "metric" body.. I am looking to get a 3D printed dash for it to be similar to a 2nd gen taco. Any resources out there??

thanks again for your super video.. because of you i will buy a trailrunner... and by the way. those the part that you put on this truck will it fit on the trailrunner?... not the body part but mecanic addon?
Yes, it should. All Element trucks are essentially the same.
Would you know if scx10v2 links fit the enduro?
You could do a old 90s Castrol racer theme. Green white and red will work for the Toyato Taco Bell grande because #Mexico.
Go green for your color
Has anybody ever asked element why they dont just ship the trucks with the 12%? Im going to grab the 25% gears that are available.
Love the enduro just not a toyota fan ..wish i could find a 80s model G.m.c step side for a body
How about a simple toyota metallic silver with black accents?
I think a pizza planet scheme would be cool even though that truck had a cap and resembles a Datsun.
Baja Blast (Mtn Dew) theme...youre welcome
Maybe a baywatch style livery
Blue with gold wheels subaru style
I love the name! I agree you should do it in Taco Bell colors!!!
Just a good lookin taco tgats all i ever want to see
How about a RealTree or Mossy Oak wrap. Or maybe a dip. I always wanted to know if anyone has dipped a lexan body before. Or I would go with a Taco Bell hot sauce packet paint scheme to keep with your theme.
I’m also overhauling my enduro. I’m gonna put an axe in it. These rims I have make it set a lot wider. Any ideas what body would look good with extended hubs?
Everything was coll till that super awkward moment at 4:51
😆
BJ Baldwin's Tundra scheme, as a prerunner.
Hey what bit set are you using for your dewalt screwdriver?
Currently, Reef's.
Punisher theme
Could you do an old weathered look to it? Like a 1980's truck thats old, reliable but maybe not so pretty anymore
Like this? ruclips.net/video/MqsACITO7Ls/видео.html
How do you secure the hood to the body?
Do the toyota dark grey or the desert tan color!
did you say where that skid came from?
Hmm, since it's not an official Toyota, how about something completely different. So how about a muscle car era inspired design? Something simple like Dodges Superbee with the vertical stripe on the rear fenders with a Superbee logo in the middle of them (though I'd use the SBG logo of course) or something like AMC's red white blue AMX paint scheme (though feel free to use other eye popping colors of course).
Great idea!!
Toyota Tundra brown.
Paint it blue
Im thinkin…just paint it black with retro red, orange, yellow stripes!!!
Nuff…said
Viva! Gorditas! Viva Toyota! Taco Bell paint scheme all the way.
Pizza Planet theme??
Taco Bell theme!
Do you have another way to connect with Matt from rc4x4 other than the FB link in the description? I don’t use FB but am interested in the links. Either way, thanks for what you do and have a great evening!
Sadly, no.
I want a truck body that hase light buckets and a interior available but I can't find one.
were could I look for one online?
Amain or RPP is usually a good place to start. Most Axial, Tamiya, and Traxxas bodies all come with light buckets.
Can you use a scx 10 2 proline body on this truck?
As long as the wheelbase is 12.3"
Scale Builder's Guild ok thank you👍🏻
I wanted to be First, still watching 👍😎👍
Taco truck theme
