@@allthingsmotorized1885 that doesn't quite cut it unfortunately. The tyres on the TRX4 Defender are around 4.6 or 4.7" and the arches are cut to suit. If it was a scale body the wheels would be a little less that 4". I have 4.35" and before I made my own fender flares they looked lost in the huge arches. But my own flares aren't quite enough either. If you look at the body the arches are cut so big they cut out part of the front doors!

Love the "stock" low look. Yes the sky-high jacked truck is cool but I do dig the very stock appearance thing. I myself have done the SSD portal delete on my TRX4 '79 Bronco and LOVE it! Looks ready to go hunting and fishing! Lol! In my build I added the Traxxas LED light kit, an SSD winch bumper with RC4WD/Warn winch, RC4WD tires and retro white spoke wheels. I did the pinion/spur gear reduction but also did the lower diff gears front and back too. The motor runs cool with NO issues whatsoever. I also added a stock rotation 550 motor as the motor direction changes with the portal delete. Lastly I re-programmed the radio to lock the rear diff solo (not the front) on the first position and then both diffs.....I just prefer it that way. It would be AWESOME if Traxxas offered a stock height kit and even better, a 2WD/4WD selectable trans (as opposed to the current Hi/Lo gear config. I rarely EVER use high gear cuz afterall it's a trail rig not a speed demon! -Cheers!

Now that’s a nice looking truck. Good job! And I agree on the wheels. Hope to see some more European/Asian bodies from Traxxas too - Hardbody… Now, I wish Traxxas get a second chassis out: A TRX-4/6 “Scale” without portals, but with selectable diff locks, 2-speed AND a selectable 2wd/4wd transfer case. Some narrower track width too - so we can select the last few Millimeters with the rims. While we’re at it: A 8 channel radio with bluetooth in a much more compact package - good for shipping too😉

Love it! It looks so good dropped down. And the wheel and tire combo just seals the deal. I like the boat on a trailer idea. Future SBG episodes where we see the trailer get printed and a boat done up? 🤔🤔 Yes, I think Traxxas could easily do a rig like this. Make it LCG, limit the upward travel but have a fair bit of down travel when needed. Make it a 'sleeper' rig that can get down to business if necessary.

I'm hoping the F150 Ford High Trail body fits my K10 Chevy High Trail TRX4 chassis without costly(or time-consuming) alterations. I was in my early twenties in 1979. Both Chevy and Ford PUs modded out were forever etched into my heart as sure as Barbara Eden and Lynda Carter. It would be a Wonder of Traxxas's generosity and as dreamy as Jeanni to alternate the bodies at whim.

Or if they just offered the pick up version of the Blazer and Bronco body I would for sure buy one to replace my TRX4 Blazer body. The snowmobile looks awesome as well! Can't wait to see it in action. I've recently been experimenting with 3D printing, but no projects anywhere near that size! Keep up the great work, I really enjoy this series!

Its got a 'rider' ha. Looks great. Snowmachines are difficult to translate in performance into the rc world because the riders skills are so much a part of what the machine can do. Placing the rider on a servo that can throw his weight right and left would be a cool addition and would potentially give you significant performance on top of what you already have. As well waiting him and creating a higher center of gravity would allow your sled to perform more realistically. But like I said it looks awesome. A tribute livery to Ken block would be amazing

Nice. It does look better lowered. I wouldn't paint the bed black, they didn't do that back then. But maybe a smokey flat clear, to remove the shine and cause a shadow effect for the illusion of depth. I would chrome the roll bar. The chrome paints scratches easy. But I foresee that being a shelf queen anyway.

"If you like being outside when there's snow" That's the problem, I haven't done any snow-capable RCs because I don't like being out in the cold when there's very little daylight time anyway.

Anyone using the portal deletes, you need a good servo and adjust your end points to way less than max angle, or install steering stops of your own design. I went through 2 sets of front axle shafts in my Class 1 comp truck when I ran this setup before changing to a 800oz servo that had the power to avoid hard angle binds.

Traxxas did a great job on the truck. Sbg hit it OUT OF THE PARK. I love the bfg and rim combo. Maybe you could add the old turbine rims for that classic look. Critique for traxxas- Dent chrome is missing black center stripe, rear and marker lights are not greatly disproportionate, black windows... : l Would be nice to have a clear body with the rollbar delete for a more scale look. Wonderful build.

I saw it in the background and knew exactly what you had done. Definitely sharp looking*low trail"

Yep! I had a few sharp-eyed folks notice it in the background!

I just did this with my new 4m with all left over or not used parts from my 4m bronco and it looks so sweet

Love this show !! I think traxxas will make lower realistic truck. I think you should make a removable camper I’m going to make one when I save up enough money to buy one.

Amazing job on the snowmobile. Haha I know you didn't design it... but hey. You printed it and assembled it anyway hahaha. That would be super fun to build. I love that Ford. LOVE IT. I always forget that ssd makes portal deletes.. As much as I want a mud truck in my collection...... I'll have a hard time not doing that conversion hahaha. Great video. Can't wait tonsee what's next with the Ford, and other builds for that matter.

That Ford looks great! I'm hoping Traxxas makes a proper wheelbase TRX-4 79 Suburban...

Traxxas should make one like that with an adjusted trans for no portals because it looks awesome

I want this truck over the high trail. I find I do more trail driving than rock climbing here in Indiana. Thanks for ruining my march budget 😂.

Again. Love 'What's on the Bench' . That ski turned out SAWEET! You put in some major print time on that baby. Can't wait for the snow run video👍👍👍The Ford is looking good 👌. I would have thought lowering it would have been more difficult, but there it is. Matt I am about to print a 'starter buck' for a new body for the scx6. I know in the past, you weren't thrilled about the prospects of a Square Body Chevy. Would a Ramcharger inspired body be of interest to you? Reason I ask is I want to send you one , but it'll take 2 months to get tooling done and make a body so I want to make sure you'll like it. If a topless "ramcharger" doesn't do it for ya, what wouldinterest you? perhaps, Stugga inspired? . Keep up the awesome content 👏

Very very cool build with the snowmobile but I truly think you're going to need a lot more steering angle to be able to do any kind of turning on a harder packed snow

Damn, that looks amazing. I would love to see a straight axle truck from Traxxas or a straight axle replacement for the portals.

SSD RC makes portal delete kits. They're reasonably priced for what you get in the kits.

I got a traxxas bigfoot body from my local hobby shop a year or so back and put it on a cco2 chassis and did just that, it looks identical to that body except for the bigfoot decals, nice looking rig that.
