Me and my friend did the same thing with his XL-5 slash, except we used proline trenchers and refilled the diff with 50k weight fluid and it drives much better

[@FatherandSonHavingFun]

I thought of using the Trenchers I have in the garage but wanted to keep it budget friendly. I bet those Trenchers look awesome on the Slash though.

[@twinturbov8]

@@FatherandSonHavingFun They do!

[@garrettkifer8332]

Only thing I'd be worried about is a little more heat from the taller tires. Would give you a little more speed too, should see if there's much difference. Makes me wanna do this to my Rustler now with how easy it is

[@FatherandSonHavingFun]

I thought about that too, but when I'd seen the Slash and Bigfoot had the same gearing I was good with it. You could always drop down a gear if you wanted.

[@douglikins2326]

Nice

[@christiansrcs7789]

You are back!!!

[@FatherandSonHavingFun]

Yes we are back, thanks for your support.

What type of screws are found on these 2WD Brushed XL-5 cars? Are they Hex head or Phillips head? Do all the the Traxxas 2WD brushed XL-5 cars always need to have the blue antenna stick out of the body shell? Or can you keep them under the body shell when driving? thx

[@buysncharge]

Base model is Phillips. Raptor 2wd is hex head. Antenna can be hidden. Amain

[@imgood1291]

i want to do this with my nitro fuel 2wd slash, just not sure wheels will fit it tho.

[@Mr.Gribble]

Just make sure you gear down!

[@mikelester5416]

Nice rig but will those tires hold up too a 3s battery with out blowing apart 🤔🤪 all I did was take my Rustler VXL tires put them on my slash fits perfect only trimmed a tiny bit of the wheel well and did not have to raise the body up looks bigger meaner

[@FatherandSonHavingFun]

No this is for the XL-5 version only, Bigfoot tires aren't able to withstand 3s. I tried the Rustler tires but it didn't have the look I was looking for . Thanks for watching and commenting hope you have a great day..

[@mitchelldexter1901]

do you think that the bigger tires make it go faster?

[@Hirthirthirt]

did they hold the power (i run 4S on my Slash).....can I buy this set for a 4WD, Sir?

[@FatherandSonHavingFun]

I'm not sure they could handle 4s, they are glued but have no foam. A alternative would be Stampede tires...thanks for watching and commenting hope you have a great day.

I am 12 yrs old and I have a slash too. XL5 brushed. I was thinking about doing monster slash or an LCG Slash. (What i mean by LCG is the LCG chassis conversion) I was going to go with the Traxxas Talon tires that were on the stampede and rustler or the DuraTrax Lockup MT tires. Both of them are about $30 for a pair so about $60 for a set. People say that the Proline tires are good but they are way to expensive. ($45 for pair, $80ish for a set) The Bigfoot tires are a good deal on ebay I might get those is I do monster slash. Also let me know on how they hold up going off road and on pavement. Also can I still do monster slash with bigger tires if I get an LCG Chassis? Also might have to gear down to a 15 or 14 tooth pinion gear. I am thinking about getting a stampede 2wd. I also have a rustler 2wd my dad bought.

[@davidbulles5732]

Also with my slash, it always gets stuck in my front yard in the grass. So bigger tires will definitely help with that.

[@FatherandSonHavingFun]

Proline's are expensive for sure, I'll let you know how they hold up. It definitely goes better in the grass. Thanks for watching and commenting hope you have a great day.
