Rc4wd Blazer (better body mounting)

A quick tip on a more scale way to mount rc4wd hard bodies. Body can be removed in 10 seconds and there is no screws to deal with! Will be posting more videos soon. Builds will range from 1/10 scale rc crawlers, 1/14 Tamiya semi's, planes, and maybe even tanks. Please be patient with me, better camera and lighting soon to come!

[@oddsandendsrc]

@@cameronleeangusgrosventreb3744 I use ebay, amazon, Tower Hobbies. If your just starting out, I recommend a Axial scx10 ii. If you want something a little more scale, go with a RC4wd trail finder 2.

This is the best mod vid on the blazer I've seen since owning my one.... The way the rtr one is designed is a pain in the rear to get on and off to change the battery when out and about.... Nice one 👍😎

[@oddsandendsrc]

Nice👍🏾

[@oddsandendsrc]

Thanks 💯

[@bamabiker750]

Man, that paint is nice and slick!! Great job. Did I spot a set of brake rotors? I recall In the other video, you mentioned that the bed cap required a lot of sanding -- could you please elaborate a bit? Was it too tight against the back of the cab? I'm just now fitting mine and it seems to fit okay or maybe I'm doing something wrong. Anyway, thanks for posting your video.

[@oddsandendsrc]

Yes, i did put some rotors on it, i cant recall the brand, maybe yeah racing. The topper did fit too tight against the back of the cab, when i would tighten the screws it was not sitting flush with the cab. Sanded the back of the cab and the bed tops quite a bit till it fit better.

[@stringsattached67]

Are those Traxxas front and rear axles? If so was it difficult to fit them on the tf2?

[@oddsandendsrc]

They are axial scx10 ii axles, I had the tf2 4 link kit on it so they were pretty easy to mount up

[@lynskyrd78]

Great Tip and easy too, looks great Did you paint this truck/? Both colors the RED and the WHITE what brand paint and Color did you use?

[@oddsandendsrc]

Yes, I painted it. I used duplicolor paint, it was performance white and dark cherry red metallic, then covered in clear coat. When I was done, it was sanded with 2500 grit and polished with buffing compound.

[@stevestonrcguy5393]

@@oddsandendsrc paint job looks fantastic 👍👍👍did you sand down original body colour, then prime? How you get the lines so crisp? Thanks for info.

[@STP_RIDGELINE]

How did you do the links can you do a vid on that mi big bro!!!

[@oddsandendsrc]

RC4WD has a 4 link kit for the TF2 chassis. I used that and experimented with different rod end links till I achieved the wheelbase I needed for the scx10 ii axles to line up. I might do a video in the future.

[@sagnhill]

I have the painted body. I wish there was paint that matched the teal, yellow, orange or blue painted body. Im going to end up using polished aluminum to cover the rockers like they did back in the 1970s. I guess it will be period anyway.

[@oddsandendsrc]

That's a good idea!

[@BGnation573]

What did you use to get your door and hood lines

[@oddsandendsrc]

I used Tamiya panel line paint. Use lite coats and only do one side at a time. Its thin like paint thinner, one drop will run around the door lines. Wipe off excess with a q-tip

[@3mrjames]

I had no idea the bumpers had pegs on them...I got my blazer used. An the pegs are not there...

[@oddsandendsrc]

Sounds like they were cut off. you should be able to find the bumpers on ebay or amazon.

[@3mrjames]

Where is your servo.

[@3mrjames]

Having a time finding the front bumper set where it slides into chassis head
