It looks so good! But $200+ is a lot to pay for a body change! Either way, excellent work

[@SmithfieldWheels]

Wow nice video and stunning truck! I guess i'll have to bite the cantilever bullet if i want this to work. Thanks for the video.

Will this work with the rc4wd 1987 toyota xtracab. Or do you know how i could do that. I just have been looking anywhere for information on this. Help would be appreciated

[@RCHobbyfilms]

as long as they have the same wheelbase 313mm I believe it will gonna work man.. 💪💯

[@heiselblock]

@@RCHobbyfilms thanks

[@ronsmusclecardiecast]

Awsome LC

[@RCHobbyfilms]

Thanks Brother.. 😊👍🏼

[@petyweestraw]

I want to run this body. But when I look for the suspension kit it was sold out everywhere I looked.

[@RCHobbyfilms]

oh you mean the cantilever.. better cut the bed and put the normal suspension kit if you want a better performance.. cantilever is just for scale look. given the difference in articulation, I still prefer cutting the bed. otherwise wait until there will be stock again.

[@emi5519]

Nice

[@RCHobbyfilms]

Thank You! 💯

[@lawrenceison394]

Where did you get that mountain bike? Rig looks great, sir!

[@RCHobbyfilms]

Thanks Bro.. on Amazon Here is the Link: www.amazon.com/Ailejia-Mountain-Bicycle-Vehicles-Decoration/dp/B081K33QWL

[@mushirishiunknown2511]

The mounts.. i have the LC70 body and a TRX4 do i need to install cantilever kit ? Does the mount kit itself is not high enough to clear the bed? Thanks!

[@RCHobbyfilms]

there is a bit gap from body to chassis on rear about 3mm, on front u gonna modify it so it will sit low. if you dont want to cut a hole in the bed then use a cantilever.

[@RCHobbyfilms]

mounts - u can get them on ebay/amazon/asiatees. I used a velcro that wraps around the front mounts and chassis to secure it instead of screws.

[@MauzyrockRC]

Hey are those body mounts necessary? Or does the kit come with something? I am keeping the bumper that comes with kit not trx4 one. Thanks!

[@RCHobbyfilms]

mounts are sold separately but not really necessary as long as you know how to mount them securely, as for the bumpers you can only use a smaller tires if ur planning not to do so.

[@MauzyrockRC]

@@RCHobbyfilms So smaller tires for the killer body bumpers?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

yap, probably a class 1 size but I think you still need to do some trimming.. depends on you & depends on how it rubs on the body. goodluck! 💪💯

[@Beertjebas81]

Would this conversion also work if a trx 4 lift kit is installed???

[@RCHobbyfilms]

I think it will gonna work since lift fit will just lift the chassis itself unless u gonna change the wheelbase. 🤔

[@Oper8or]

Thanks for sharing, but you didnt even show how to use the mounts.

[@RCHobbyfilms]

Thanks for watching, yeah, sorry was not able to add that on the video, but its very much straight forward, the body had been modified & drilled for that specific body mount & sits perfectly.

[@Oper8or]

@@RCHobbyfilms I understand. It's not much different then mounting other hard bodies with magnets. It seems much easier than the way RC4WD does it where you have to screw it on from the side panels below the doors.

[@RCHobbyfilms]

yap much easier because I only mounted my lc70 from the bed & hood..I suggest using a magnets / velcro & secure them with zip ties & ur good to go 💪

[@eijneB06]

Hi did you use the trx shocks in your cantilever?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

BENZ 06 Just replace the xtraspeed that comes with it, its the same size as the TRX Please Subscribe! Thanks.. ☺️👍🏼

[@sd_rcfanatic157]

I’m confused with the wheelbase of the lc70 body. So the 324 version is longer?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

Derek E yes sir.. 313 fits most of the trx4 chassis (sport,bronco,chevy)

[@sd_rcfanatic157]

RC Hobbyfilms I ordered the 313 for my 324 chassis. I don’t want to want to shorten the wheelbase to 313. Do you know it will still fit?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

with a bit of modification, will surely fit bro.

[@willb3636]

Did you have to make the wheelbase longer?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

No Sir, no adjustment needed on the wheelbase. its the same as the trx4 sport size out of the box

[@ajaybharadva8654]

Great video! In terms of fitting the LC body, why did you need to change the battery tray? Thanks

[@RCHobbyfilms]

it will hit the bed portion of the body so you need a lower battery tray set up.

[@ajaybharadva8654]

@@RCHobbyfilms thought so. Thanks again for the video!

[@ajaybharadva8654]

Another question, did you have to convert the chassis to 324mm with the traxxas wheelbase kit ? On the description of the xtra speed cantilever you recommended it said : “It fits TRX4 324mm. If want to fit 312 wheelbase need change to 70 mm shocks (not included )” So do I need to convert the wheelbase? I’m building the Trx4 chassis kit (not the sport kit). Both kits are listed online as 312mm.

[@RCHobbyfilms]

Bro, I think TRX-4 kits are all 313mm (sport & a kit w/o a body), 324mm are the defender & tactical and those are not kits they are RTR. u can use the cantilever labeled for 313 & 324, you can even use the stock trx4 shocks.

[@RCHobbyfilms]

plus it will depend on what LC70 killerbody you have, mine is a 313mm kit. if you have the 324 LC70 you dont need to convert the chassis already. like I said you can use the 313 or 324 cantilever it has adjustable links & you can use the stock trx4 shocks

[@josecanseca8979]

do I need to do this to fit a Jeep COMANCHE hardbody on the trx-4 Sport chassis?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

maybe bro, as long as they are with the same wheelbase I think it will gonna fit with a bit of modification🤷‍♂️.

[@itsam3xican126]

I’m new to RC and wanted to know. If I buy the Traxxas TRX-4 Crawler Kit does everything you have in the description still work for me? Also, looks like the cantilever you have in the description is sold out. Do you need that or will you have to cut if you don’t have it? Is there a different place where I can get it?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

ItsaM3xican12 Thanks for watching bro, Yes sir you can definitely use the Kit on this body since you will just need the chassis, you will just rebuild the whole chassis anyway (battery mounts and esc placements. Yap, I suggest you buy the cantilever, go check on rcmart, ebay if its available there. otherwise you will need to cut of the bed and make a hole so you can fit the other alternative shock mounts.

[@itsam3xican126]

RC Hobbyfilms ok thanks. Will have to look into that.

[@danielsonhobbies]

Killerbody has three different lc70 bodies, which one did you get?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

Regular Joe its the 313 mm bro. I think i put the link on the description box. Thanks for watching.. 😉👍🏼

[@danielsonhobbies]

@@RCHobbyfilms k thanks. Wondering whats the difference on your model and the lc70 made for the trx4? Looks like biggest difference is price 🤔? How was your experience ordering from Asiatees?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

asiatees shipped fast like 3-5 days dependeng on what courier you choose. I think they have the other version of this body that comes with fenders and pre painted already. but im not sure if its 313mm.

Hi, what are the biggest tire I can use without rubbing?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

the 1.9 Class 1 BFGR from Proline Racing is the beat choice for this bro..

[@RCHobbyfilms]

still a bit of rubbing but not the same as the stock 1.9 from Traxxas

Thank you

[@x2Dubz]

Do I really have to change the rear suspension to run this body?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

Its optional Sir, but if you dont want to cut a hole from the bed of the truck its better to use a cantilever or a smaller size suspension but to be mounted diagonally towards the chassis..

[@emilgabl9069]

@@RCHobbyfilms Do this negatively affect truck performance for crawling?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

@emil gabl are u asking about the cantilever performance or using the hardbody?

[@devingable8467]

How does it effect performance?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

well, it is hardbody which added extra weight which affect my LCG, I made this set-up more on a scale perspective. 😉

[@scootphreak]

did u glue the front bumper mount to the chasis? kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoTZc5-te9eIa6M

[@danielsonhobbies]

If you push down full compression of your rear suspension does it get stuck?

[@RCHobbyfilms]

Regular Joe Yes Sir! thats the issue of having the cantilever set up. I think the best option is mount the shocks towards the center chassis.(diagonaly)

[@danielsonhobbies]

@@RCHobbyfilms k. I just recently installed this and is finding out now! I installed a rubber hose to act as a bumpstop on the link. Definitely will have to try the diagonal setup similar to some monster truck. Do a video if you change your setup please!

Goodluck Brother, alright I’ll keep you updated 🤜🏼🤛🏼😎

[@itsam3xican126]

I can’t find the battery kit at all, anywhere. They all say it is out of stock. Is that something that is needed?

I found one like this on eBay. Do you think it will work? hot-racing.com/?partnumber=TRXF100FM01;c=1164

[@RCHobbyfilms]

Yes sir, you need a battery kit to lower the battery case. you can check with other china brands in amazon/ebay.the one you send comes with a servo kit.

[@itsam3xican126]

RC Hobbyfilms so, do you think that one I sent would work or not? Also, what should I look for if I’m buying a Chinese one. Is there specific dimensions it need to be? Thanks

[@RCHobbyfilms]

the one you send will work bro. all battery kit that labeled TRX4 will fit. any brands actually like hotracing,yeah racing etc.

[@itsam3xican126]

RC Hobbyfilms thanks man! Thanks for the help. Just trying to get into the RC stuff. Can be pretty intimidating since I’ve never done anything even similar and since it’s not cheap I don’t want something that will just collect dust. Thanks for the help. Liked and subbed!

[@hanaleimendoza6900]

you didnt show how to mount the body

[@RCHobbyfilms]

Yap, It is basically screwing those metal mounts with a ready holes from body. I did not use the screw to secure it from the chassis. What I did was to use a velcro that wraps around the metal mounts to the crossmember and front bumper mounts.
