Add washers on the axle shaft before you install the wheel nut and it will make it way easier to tighten the wheel nut. It will raise the nut a bit higher. Probably 2 washers.. 2.5mm or 3mm whatever fits. They are very thin anyway.
I agree ! I have the same truck on the same shoes. 😊 Only 2 issues i'm working on : torque twist and too much play in the transmission. Must take the gearbox apart to see that. Otherwise, it's perfect.🥰
Excellent, it's an awesome bit of kit isn't it. Tbh when I bought it I thought it would have a few flaws as it's a cheaper brand, but it's pretty awesome for the money of you're not looking for scale. 👍 Yeah, tbh I want to upgrade all the axles and driveshafts too, as with all that torque I think they're just waiting to break tbh. 👍
They build an axle for the rear to take away the torque twist. It spins in the opposite direction as there is a second outdrive on the rear of gearbox that spins in the opposite direction. It doesn't eliminate torque twist but a massive improvement
@@lgrc6120 Yes, i saw that. $45 for one machined axle casing, so $90 to equip front and rear axle. A bit expensive. As i'm a mechanical designer, i designed my own axle casings to save money and also get brass axles.😉
Yeah they're really good. Just finished testing the Injora Cling Ons and I think they're even better tbh! Review next week. 👍 Cheers mate, hope your situation changes and you can make it. Maybe post in the Southern Scale Trail Facebook group and see if anyone could offer you a lift?
Absolutely fantastic!! I’ve looked up this car on Ali express, it’s not available anywhere else . It’s priced £131.36 first order price. I’ve not purchased anything from them.Does that sound right to you?
Thanks very much 👍 Yeah I think they normally give you extra discount for your first order. They had it on sale for $155 the other day. Just make sure it's the Brushless version as there is a Brushed version too. I paid I think it was $198 a few weeks ago. Even at $200 it's still worth it imo, awesome rig. Quite possibly the best mini RTR right now. 👍 Hope that helps. 👍
Tires are kind of everything. I knew a guy who would only put cheap tires on his vette. Meanwhile I’m tossing $1600 set on the GTi. All the best of the corvette engineering undone with one thoughtless act.
🤣 Totally agree. I didn't go quite that extreme, but it used to amaze me when doing track days people would turn up with their fancy cars with junk tyres and wonder why everyone was lapping them! 🤣🤦👍😎
The links are to Injora's website, if you're in the UK I think they ship from China. You could see if Modelsport gave them in stock. They're one of the best UK RC distributors imo. 👍
Mate is yours the one i could get on radio controlled - is there a difference with the absima goat one they got there? What would be the best one rtr with all the latest bits and the Wifi app, waterproof and … in london there aren’t really any model shops anymore. Help please I want one brushless lots of metal waterproof fast and slow ….
You can get the FTX Utah from Modelsport, it's exactly the same, just re-branded and with a different colour shell. Modelsport have the brushless version for £165 and you'd get next day delivery. 👍
@@DoURC - sweet can’t wait, yup I have the ftx open on my lappy since last week was trying to compare between the absima one on radio controlled and the ftx at modelsport. The absima one has a furitek app to dwn load and adjust sumit - any idea what that’s all about?
No it's not waterproof. The motor is an outrunner, so it's not sealed. I wouldn't get it wet tbh. This is better suited to being a dry rig. I generally mud everything, but this is one rig that's staying dry! 🤣👍
I don't have an MN99 so not sure on hex size, but if the hex size is the same, just compare your stock tyre size to these to see if you'd have any clearance issues etc. 👍

Thanks very much, great tip. 👍
As far as the wheel nut issue, I took my 5.0 box driver to the grinding tool.
🤣👍 It is a bit annoying they're so tight, especially on a 1.3" wheel. 👍

thanks for sharing. Can you do some downhill testing to show wheel slop?
Thanks 👍
I may have done it already in another video. I've used this rig in a few videos now in my Mini Crawlers playlist 👍
They look very sticky/grippy.and those wheels are really nice looking.great stuff bud. Have a great day tomorrow

@@DoURC good idea mate. Probably wouldn't be the same now tho without a ticket i wouldn't be able to drive any of my trucks.oh well.always September
Softer inserts innthe front will help alot.
Printed inserts.
Thanks very much. I keep meaning to try printed inserts. I was thinking of stiffening up the rear suspension too maybe, to reduce the front lift. 👍
I got the same wheels and body for mine 👍🏼👍🏼
Excellent, they're great rigs aren't they. 👍😎
Climb that tree :) Nice intro. I like that Truck too . Thank you for making videos, I like learning and you teach me :)
Thanks very much 👍
I was well chuffed with the tree climb, was good fun too. Its always nice when I find something new to try. 👍

Hi my friend do you have any links from the UK ?? You only show us links thank you

Thank you keep up the good work
Sorry just wanted to ask you are you in UK or us
@@Muslim-ik UK 👍

Hi. Is this crawler the same as the ftx Utah?
Yeah, the FTX is just a rebranded Hobbyplus. 👍
It shd pretty much submerge in water too, right?
No it's not waterproof. The motor is an outrunner, so it's not sealed. I wouldn't get it wet tbh. This is better suited to being a dry rig. I generally mud everything, but this is one rig that's staying dry! 🤣👍
That’s cheating 😁
Great work Rob 👍 Keep them coming mate 😎🏁
🤣 It kinda felt like it. I'm so used to more scale rigs, this thing is just crazy!
Thanks very much 👍
What would I have to get to install these on my new MN99s?
I don't have an MN99 so not sure on hex size, but if the hex size is the same, just compare your stock tyre size to these to see if you'd have any clearance issues etc. 👍
👋😁 Nice sharing
Big like ✌️
Thanks very much mate 👍
Very nice
Thanks very much 👍
nice 💪👍
Thanks very much mate 👍😎
You’re going to need bigger rocks 😮😊
🤣 You should check out my review of the Injora Cling On's, they're even better. 👍😎
What inserts please.
Stock foams. 👍
@@DoURC I ordered Injora super soft yellow. See how it goes. Going on my FMS POWER HOBBY. gREAT VIDEO.
@Charlieoil Thanks very much 👍
Cool, I've got the yellows on my FCX18 Farm Truck Build. They do provide a better side wall and are quite soft. 👍
More metal the better - less for me to upgrade, right away any how
Yeah, even with just wheels and tyres this rig is a beast. I went for ally wheels, but you could go brass for even more low down weight. 👍
Won’t belong and you be running 1.9 tyres 😂
🤣🤣🤣 That would be hysterical!
