Overview of my TF2 beater rig!

I’ve been getting questions from folks about my build and figured I’d throw a video together going over everything I’ve done so far.
My apologies for the stumbling, the ums, and the multiple “agains” 😆
Shout out to all the companies that make these products that have made this build what it is. In no way am I affiliated in any way with any of them. Just really enjoy their products!

Great looking rig. I love my rc4wd stuff. So much more funnto tinker and work on something than to just take it out of a box and win a local comp.

[@boingrcgarage]

Was awesome seeing this thing "in person" and meeting you out at Knights Ferry today. That rig is insanely scale. And yeah, I was already subscribed to your channel as well. Hahahaha

[@rquino4210k]

Haha heck yeah. Thanks brotha

Great video and sweet rig! I have two tf2s. I have done a bunch to get them to be capable. I love them! 3 link in the front with 80mm coil overs makes a huge difference.

[@rquino4210k]

Yeah brotha they are a blast to work on. As much as I’m sure the coils do great I just cant bring myself to do it. Haha

Thank you!!

Awesome build,,,, I’m thinking about starting a crawler project,,,, I really like this little Toyota truck,,,, what changes or upgrades do you recommend I make first,,, I’m new to this crawler nation,,, thank you!

[@rquino4210k]

Thanks man!! Thankfully the first must do mods are free mods. Go with just the single main leaf spring and take out the springs in the shocks. After those main leaf springs break in you’ll be golden. Check out AandMgarage.com they have all the parts you need after

[@MichaelMuzik-wy1sg]

hi! i'm glad yer postin' videos on TF2s! Did you do a motor clock? i just 'un-clocked' my motor mount because i couldn't clear the the new axles. I just put my Vanquish Rockjock axles on my TF2, i struggled with shock placement, and drilled some holes, amongst other mods.

[@rquino4210k]

Thanks man! There isn’t a whole lot out there when it comes to these leafers so figured why not. I did clock the motor initially but just like you there was no room for the axles to clear. I even cut off the link mounts from the pumpkins.

[@RcDungeon]

Great video and information

[@rquino4210k]

TY Sir!!

[@user-qv1st1no5l]

what type of paint do use? mine came off easily, and did u use primer?

[@rquino4210k]

I just use the Rustoleum general purpose paints no primer. I do get some scuffing but nothing crazy

[@932fast4u]

Did you use the JEC racing ar44 leaf springs mounts? Im looking into to axle swapping my tf2, and has me scratching my head because it looks like they attach where the link mounts would go and those rock jocks dont have removable link mounts.

[@rquino4210k]

They are from JEC but they are the 10.2 Currie leaf mounts. They sit right in where your shock and link mounts are. jecracing.com/collections/1-10-products/products/jecracing-scx10-2-currie-leaf-mounts

[@932fast4u]

I completely missed those while I was looking lol. Thank you!

@rquino4210k Okay, so you're a native by now. I just left about 2 years ago.

@@cbmd2011 that’s a big negative Sir. I’ll never claim this place. 😆 I forever will be a Texan I’m looking to get myself out of here too within the next few years.

[@SnarkyRC]

I have a TF2. It's a total POS compared to my other crawlers. It just sits on the shelf. The BRX02 is a far superior leaf truck. So much better quality. Reefs doesn't make servos, they just rebrand them and overprice them. They're actually AGFRC servos.

[@rquino4210k]

I get what you’re saying stock these are junk which is why there is very little actual TF2 left haha. A BRX is definitely on my list of rigs to own just haven’t pulled the trigger yet. Had no idea about the reefs thing either. That’s crazy

[@AgeOrmstad]

Sweet toy man😋💪

[@murrhardterrccrawler-mp3gz]

Nice Video ❤ 🫶🏻

[@tokinawa_rc23]

Rc4wd tf2 is great truck n my dream truck 👌

[@SnarkyRC]

Nah they're junk. The BRX02 is way better.
