Are you guys looking for the technical info in these videos or do you want to just get to the install?

[@souledoutrc8174]

Harley Designs both would be great on this budget build I believe it will help a lot of people including myself you do a great job of breaking everything down and explaining what works and what doesn’t work it’s very helpful.

[@jacklin694]

Harley Designs the technical side is always interesting but I really enjoy the installation both are important

[@dothislaterdontprocrastina1396]

I like the technical info alot bcuz thats what I wanna learn most

[@rcvalley8706]

Love the technical info!

[@dropbearrc9819]

Both👍

[@frostbittencanuck5037]

Hey Josh.. great week .. luv what you luv the slider upgrade and relocation of the receiver box.. Thanks again👍🤘👊 Frostbitten Canuck Calgary 🇨🇦

[@Project_4Play]

You did the same Thing I did with the water proof reciver box and the scaler fab sliders. Thanks for the sliders info on moving the links I had no idea!!

[@humblerc841]

i love troy's work. the stuff just fits.

[@CarminesRCTipsandTricks]

Josh, you beat Matt by 2 hours!! I'm a fit and finish guy myself. Love those Rock Sliders for that reason. I still can't afford an SCX10 II Honcho YET, but I had thought about that waterproof RX Box, and how to repurpose it for a little while. You SOLVED that mental dilemma! Thanks!! 👍👍 Carmine 🚂

[@kcbunn9239]

I just watched the busted knuckle videos last night on suspension setup and geometry. Thanks for keeping this build off going. So much cool stuff for us to try that you and Matt have shown us. I know it takes a ton of time to edit these videos, even with premiere. 😂🤣 Keep up the awesome content! You’re going to need a media team soon just to keep up with video demand and all the editing. 🤙🏽

[@scalebuildersguild]

Check out this build I did with the Scalerfab sliders for an alternative to mounting the receiver box! scalebuildersguild.com/forum/showthread.php?25291-SCX10-II-Winning-is-hard&highlight=time+winning

[@Fz-bo7sm]

Ripin mad skids with the hoonigan hoodie but killin crocs at the same time. All off camera of course, show us your secrets

[@hemistormrc]

Another solid upgrade! And thank you for the mention, I appreciate it. :)

[@pwrofgrayskull]

Great series, I’m still enjoying all the tips and ideas. It’s been a good resource for me. Thank you!

[@hwy1rc]

Man! Great job we are watching and every performance upgrade you have done, we have applied it on our honcho, and on the trail it shows with our rig, thank you for the fact you have kept are build cheap and still running and can’t wait to see what’s coming next

[@Adamc0607]

thx for the advice! I have been waiting to do the rock sliders for having to relocate the esc but just cut out and reused the box. Great looking rig!

[@WoodedCivilian]

Love those rock sliders

[@MikesRCWorld]

Nicely done Josh, those new scaler fab sliders are nice 👍🏻

[@ericviger4984]

Great video man I got something to look into now with the upper link positions! Thanks for sharing, trucks turning out awesome!

[@kevinmontgomery9475]

Another great video, I really like the receiver box mod and thanks to you and Matt for the time you guys put in to these videos.

[@BSalc]

Clean upgrade.. been lookin into those scalerfab sliders on the project i got going on.. just couldnt pull the trigger yet! But after watching this video i might 👍🏽

[@Slambone77]

Loving these videos! Great job! My honcho is a mixture of SBG and your build lol. Turning out awesome! Look forward to every video!

[@bencleveland5867]

I love it. This has been fun to watch. Great ideas and production quality. Thanks for the hard work!

[@fastkrt10]

Really like the way this truck is going. Look forward to Wed for this video...lol

[@jacklin694]

This has been a great series so far lot's of great info

[@kinslersrccustoms6945]

I like what you did this week and how you moded the rx box nice work ! I will be looking into how to tune the uper links so thanks for talking about that

[@andyrichey1192]

That's awesome Josh, thanks for sharing I'll be watching more of this series

[@blackdiamondrcranch897]

I truly want all the tech stuff Your teaching me a lot !!! Thank you this week was awesome 👏

[@adz88g69]

Keep it up guys always keen to see what you do

[@mondospeedy3089]

So I know this was a last year thing, but I think to save a bit of money, sanding off the ribs on the original slider might work? Thanks for you video, pretty cool..

[@xxrfmxx]

keep up guys we like both builds

[@ShenRC]

😊👍Nice those look slippery smooth!

[@mudguyRC]

That would be cool if there was a notch for the body in those sliders- like the vanquish poison spyder ones. Good stuff Josh. I was very anti-squat until I realized the health benefits.

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

The only squat I do is with my 4-links!

[@scottbray5936]

Awesome add on. Loving this build off.

[@gordorc4585]

awesome episode! i really like that youre doing this project with sbg=) im watching even though i dont have a scx10II. im still trying to figure out what crawler im saving up for:) im getting a lot of good ideas and inspiration from you guys, THANK YOU:))

[@MotoInvestor]

Love this series from both of you. I'm sure it's a lot of work to put this on and I thank you for your time. Just wanted to let you know I think your cheating yourself with regards to your budget numbers. Unless I'm missing something. See ya next week.

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I’ll have to go back and check, I could have made a math error in the rush. I’ll update my spreadsheet and see.

[@redturbofox9480]

This series is great keep it up

[@brianniggemann3937]

Love the series! Keep up the good work!

[@reddeerrebelrc6674]

I think in this case some velcro would have been just fine.

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I don’t like Velcro, I avoid using it anywhere I can.

[@MakeItRC]

Another awesome video. 👍

[@RUSERIOUS76]

So at what point are the two trucks going to meet? You both know we need a run off to see which does best.

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

Axialfest is when they’ll meet up!

[@hemitj]

Awesome work! Love it

[@gsgreenrcs3196]

Hope your mini me doesn’t try to steal your intro lol 😂 can’t wait for next week

[@christopheralting4105]

Just put these sliders on my SCX10-2 Deadbolt. I noticed in your video that you attached the links higher up than stock. Do you recommend doing this? What are your thoughts after running the truck with the links in that set up VS stock location. Also, just a quick note, I saw that you zip tied your wires from the speed control underneath the battery tray. I ran the wire from the speed control through the spacers in the battery tray so that it would not come in contact with the driveshaft. It runs under the battery tray, then over the top (where your zip tie is connected) and then back down through the next spacer.

[@EvaderKMP]

Looking goooood!

[@robertmatheny3375]

great job....

[@ricksscalerc2222]

Nice job bud,i really like those sliders..

[@kenstouffer8407]

What dimensions are the Scalerfab slider/skid plates you used? I am a little confused by the options on their site and your link is taking me to a different style. Love the fit on yours and want to make sure I get the right ones. Thanks.

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I have the single bar version, for the Honcho cab, with the skid plates.

[@marcusleader283]

Did you get the sliders and bumper in flat black or did you choose the truck bed coating?

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

Flat black

[@stephencocke66]

Are you two going to run some gates at the end of the build off?

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

We’ll both be at Axialfest in July. So we’ll definitely hit the trail!

[@whatever9283]

Can you put a winch on the prerunner bumper from scalerfab?

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

There is lots of room, just have to bolt it in.

[@dropbearrc9819]

Great mod and good info 👍

[@shaunshaunk9297]

Great job!!!!

[@Timingdoyle]

Hey there is 2 minutes of black at the end of the video

[@Timingdoyle]

It ends at 930

[@mudguyRC]

It’s so you can jam out a little

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I forgot to trim my audio before rendering. I was editing and uploading right up to my deadline!

[@emeraldcityrc239]

I tried to follow what you were doing and then things just got way too out of hand.

[@souledoutrc8174]

Sweet install on the rock sliders they look perfect for this rig and my question is will I be able to install the first style axle housing from the Scx10 ii into the Honcho? I know it’s a different setup and doesn’t require knuckles but would it be an easy change from these axles?

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

Yeah nothing would be different, you’d just need a housing and C-hubs.

[@souledoutrc8174]

Harley Designs awesome thanks for your help really appreciate it.

[@excabswap5022]

Watch at 9:30 and wait for it...

[@CasperRc81]

Idk man, this new run of axials seems like there less tech involved. Your deadbolt had more fab in it also the wroncho and wraith seemed like there is more trick parts along with the deadbolt. My scx10ii I love it’s operation but it’s to much. I miss buying a first gen scx and moding it from front to back. Taking a ok performer to a crazy performer. Axial seems to becoming more commercialized and less engineering changes at home like traxxas. I like both just miss the old videos. Also seemed like more home built garage mods were done on the scx instead of the big box companies making bolt ons.

[@Cameron_OKG]

Another good one . I'm going to get those sliders . Do you know if they fit the sr5 proline body ?

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

They should fit exactly the same as these did, perfect fit.

[@kingstonrc329]

Great mod on today's video 👍🏻👍🏻

[@nathanstewart2018]

Scalerfab stuff is great but the extra money for the coating isn't worth it. It chips off really easy. Its better to paint them yourself and save some cash

[@jrodzrc4580]

Did u move ur upper link in the front on the rock sliders or is it in the stock location?

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I left the front in the factory location.

[@jrodzrc4580]

Harley Designs thank u

[@dothislaterdontprocrastina1396]

Hey can anyone help me out with a question I have about ESC's? I am trying to run my 18v lithium ion drill battery which is connecting to the parts inside a drill. Now I have it soldered onto my esc and I get insane throttle and control but I can't seem to get my steering to be strong. Once I turn my esc beeps and resets. I disconnected the steering servo and I was able to drag test perfectly fine. Do I need a huge BEC or upgrade to a more capable ESC? Also please be warned I'd say don't do this it's probably seriously dangerous. I already blew an esc while trying to wire my led bar when positive and negative touched. Vids on my channel to show

[@TheChefford]

marioo marsupial you probably Need an external bec at higher voltages the weak internal one has to work really hard to step down the voltage and you en up getting receiver brown out causing the beeping

[@Legoman585]

You definitely need an external BEC to run your servo. Even though you are putting 18v to the ESC the built in BEC is still trying to limit the amount of voltage going to your servo to about 6V depending on the ESC. With an external BEC you are able to adjust how much voltage it sends to your servo.

[@rcrehab9623]

Love it,!!

[@Tht.TallTech]

Hey man, do you know of anywhere or anyhow I can purchase just the trail honcho body with rear bed/cage?

[@dothislaterdontprocrastina1396]

MK films yeah it's on Amazon but they also have this which is very similar but it's a newer chevy www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00WVIN0D8/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1520406026&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=trail+honcho+body+and+cage&dpPl=1&dpID=512Jgptb%2BnL&ref=plSrch

[@Tht.TallTech]

marioo marsupial thanks but I’m looking for the body and the rear bed with the roll cage and diamond plate on it

[@mikes062]

I'm not finding one that's a direct take off from a stock rtr but this is a full brand new setup for the first scx10 honcho, so it's capable of holding a tire in the rear. m.ebay.com/itm/Axial-AX4025-Trail-Honcho-Clear-Body-w-Rear-Cage-AX10-SCX10/382254832762?epid=1801764935&hash=item590029dc7a:g:67IAAOSwGUBZ5395

[@fishrowe420]

I cant help but notice that the link you left for the sliders is not the same slider. You list them in the budget report at 38 bucks, but thats WITHOUT the skids. The sliders you have in this video are 50 bucks. Great series. Keep it up.

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

No, the double bar is 50, these are 25 without the skid and 37 with the skid.

[@fishrowe420]

Copy that. I found it! It just doesn't show the skids when the option is selected..... Thanx for clearing that up. I love the look of those. Keep up the amazing work. Whats coming up next week?

[@STEVOD313]

👍👍👊👊📹📹

[@PiazzaWoodWorks]

Nice free mod
