RC4wd C2x, Major Changes, Flatbed & Cab, Part 1, Mounting the CChand Bed

[@Axial_Andrew]

The work that you do, helps push me to be a better RC builder... And I thank you for that...👍

[@RCeveryday]

That’s awesome dude!

Hello from southeast alaska I hope your having a great day today bro

[@SwampersRC]

I'm thinking maybe cut out the entire hood to expose the engine and the mounts might work the way you have them now. You can always experiment with this body before cutting the new one (including the flares).

[@everythingdrifting3938]

When I did the same conversion I put spacers under the battery plate to lift the rear body mounts up high enough to make the body sit flat to the chassis.

[@RCeveryday]

That’s it! Didn’t even think about that. Thanks for the idea.

[@everythingdrifting3938]

@@RCeveryday OR if you can't get the battery tray/plate counter sunk Allen hexs out because they are rounding out, shave the top body mount that touches the bottom of the tray/plate. When you screw it on use a square/large washer to minimise chance of splitting. Just another way I did it before I bought a new drill for a more permanent job lol.

[@Smile-N-Bear]

OK. You got my attention. The plans sound perfect. CC makes some incredible accessories. I have a couple on my LC70. I really like the dovetail front with open hood idea. Cant wait to see it! Always a pleasure. Right on Brother 👊

[@trevorcourt1403]

I bought that bed looks great on lwb with xtra cab body on

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

I just saw the last video and what you’re doing with the cab and bed! Nicely done!👌😎👍

[@brandaneakright6082]

Gonna be a cool build, that bed is pretty cool to be honest and I’m normally not a flat bed fan.

[@RcDungeon]

Man love this build! Your channel is so inspiring for me because you think outside the box of actually fabbing your own parts and making everything work just like us 1:1 guys do. Great work man following this one. Thanks for the great content

[@RCeveryday]

Thank you brother!

[@RcDungeon]

@@RCeveryday your very welcome

[@BC-rc]

I think cut out the hood, set it aside, and run it to show ow the whole engine. My opinion. Gonna be nice no matter what and quite capable too

[@RCJesus420]

That's a cool flat bed, for sure. Why don't you cut the slider in the middle, cut off the extra from the center, weld it back together, grind it, paint it, and then drill a hole in the chassis and tap it for a screw? It's more work than cutting the bars off the flatbed, but it would look dope! :D

[@ricklozano2969]

very cool great job

[@ozboy8144]

It's gonna look really awesome when you're done. Question have you ever tried droop set up to give you a little bit lower Stance.?

[@3dman875]

Looking good can't wait until you have it all done what year was the car that you show

[@slzbuildz]

Could you put the mud flaps behind the front tires?

[@dancearoundtheworld5360]

im doing a 8x4 scx24 and not welding makes it fun to mount a 15inch flatbed

[@ridgerc5976]

Do you know if the Vanquish AR60 aluminum upgrades also fit the D44 axles on the C2X? The c-hubs and rear lock outs look very similar between the two.

[@RCeveryday]

I doubt they will. Rc4wd stuff is usually different. I’m pretty sure they offer their own parts for them as well.

[@michaelwhite7566]

Would you sell that bed you took off your C2X?

[@RCeveryday]

It’s been gone for a while now, sorry

[@michaelwhite7566]

@@RCeveryday would you happen to have the original flat bed that came on it
